The New Permanent Immersive Exhibition Comes To Life on
April 24 at The Shops at Crystals
LAS VEGAS, April 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SBX Group and SEE are proud to announce the Las Vegas debut of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel: The Exhibition®, which will open on Friday, April 24 at The Shops at Crystals. Bringing one of the world’s most iconic artistic achievements within reach, the exhibition offers guests the opportunity to experience Michelangelo’s masterpieces up close and at full scale – no travel to Rome required.
Presented by the team behind Princess Diana & The Royals: The Exhibition – recognized by TripAdvisor as one of the top 10% of attractions worldwide – this new immersive property is designed for all ages, and positions itself as a must-see daytime attraction in Las Vegas.
Painted by Michelangelo in the early 1500s, the Sistine Chapel was centuries ahead of its time with a level of detail, anatomy and emotion that changed the course of art history and inspired artists for years to come. As one of the most visited places in the world, the Sistine Chapel is visual storytelling at the highest level, and represents the idea that art can transcend time, culture, and language.
The 25,000 sq ft. exhibition transports guests into the heart of the Vatican through a breathtaking presentation of all 34 of Michelangelo’s most celebrated frescoes, meticulously reproduced and displayed in stunning detail. The experience also features life-size sculptural representations of three of Michelangelo’s most renowned works – Moses, David, and Pietà.
With this rare chance to “see Rome in Las Vegas”, guests are invited to step beyond the artwork and fully immerse themselves through:
- The Last Judgment Room – a powerful, cathedral-like space with pews and immersive sound, inviting guests to experience the work as it was intended, surrounded by an atmosphere of reflection.
- Striking photo-worthy moments for shareable content.
- Educational storytelling, informative signage and audio guides that allow guests to explore the meaning, technique, and historical context of each fresco at their own pace.
- A curated retail experience featuring exclusive pieces to commemorate the visit.
As Las Vegas continues to evolve as a global hub for entertainment and immersive attractions, Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel: The Exhibition® establishes itself as a new must-see daytime attraction and world-class experience – one that blends timeless artistry with modern accessibility.
