Gigantes do Jardim brings to São Paulo a new generation of immersive family entertainment, transforming the hidden universe beneath our feet into a monumental, interactive and educational adventure. Created by DXZ360, with the Italian creative direction of Gianluca Falletta, the exhibition has been developed through an international collaboration that combines creative technology, audiovisual innovation, scenographic design and experiential storytelling. The project was realized with the valuable collaboration of UAU Grupo, a Brazilian agency specialized in creative technologies and immersive experiences, On Projeções, a company focused on audiovisual solutions and technological projections with offices in Brazil and Portugal, and Fever, the international platform for events, experiences and ticketing. Information and reservations are available at https://feverup.com/m/653806.
Designed as an immersive exhibition for all ages, Gigantes do Jardim invites visitors to abandon the human scale and enter a spectacular 1,300-square-meter garden where leaves become shelters, everyday objects turn into monumental landmarks and insects reveal themselves as fascinating giants of nature. The experience is not conceived as a traditional exhibition, but as a physical journey through a living ecosystem, where science, art and entertainment meet inside a scenographic world filled with animatronics, videomapping, interactive stations, special lighting effects and real sounds inspired by nature.
The creative concept behind Gigantes do Jardim is rooted in a simple but powerful idea: the smallest creatures on the planet are often among the most essential. By enlarging the scale of insects and placing the audience inside their environment, the exhibition transforms curiosity into discovery and discovery into wonder. Families, children, schools and nature lovers are encouraged to explore the garden not as passive spectators, but as true explorers of the microworld. Every space is designed to make visitors feel part of an ecosystem that is ancient, complex and perfectly organized, revealing the importance of insects in biodiversity, balance and life on Earth.
Inside the Grande Jardim, visitors come face to face with large-scale animatronic insects, including moving creatures up to six meters long and a giant praying mantis almost four meters high. These robotic figures are not simply scenic attractions: they are part of a broader narrative environment where movement, scale, sound and light create an encounter that feels both spectacular and educational. The exhibition uses the emotional power of immersive design to make scientific content accessible, memorable and engaging, especially for younger audiences who learn best through play, observation and direct experience.
One of the most evocative moments of the journey is the Cúpula das Borboletas, an immersive 360-degree projection environment dedicated to the migration of monarch butterflies. This space surrounds visitors with images, movement and atmosphere, recreating one of the most extraordinary natural phenomena in the animal kingdom. The result is a poetic and technological installation where projection design becomes a tool for storytelling, allowing the public to experience nature through a language that is visual, emotional and deeply immersive.
Gigantes do Jardim also includes a strong physical and interactive dimension. A Teia challenges visitors with hundreds of fluorescent ropes, creating a playful environment that tests coordination and agility in a safe and entertaining way. The Formigueiro offers a themed area with suspended paths, slides and a ball pool, turning the logic of an anthill into a fun and accessible adventure for children and families. These areas demonstrate the exhibition’s ability to combine learning with movement, transforming the body itself into part of the experience.
Digital interaction is another key element of the format. Visitors can create their own insect using interactive Touch Tables and take part in digital missions activated through QR Codes. This layer of gamification expands the exhibition beyond scenography, introducing a participatory mechanic that allows each guest to build a personal connection with the narrative. Technology is used not as a cold interface, but as a bridge between imagination, knowledge and play.
The atmosphere of Gigantes do Jardim changes through special lighting cycles that evoke dawn, sunset and nocturnal bioluminescence. Videomapping, environmental sound design and immersive lighting create different emotional rhythms inside the space, guiding visitors through a garden that feels alive and constantly transforming. This approach reflects DXZ360’s vision of immersive entertainment as a complete language, where every element, from scenic architecture to digital content, from robotics to sound, contributes to a coherent and memorable experience.
Before leaving, visitors can capture one of the most iconic memories of the exhibition at Asas do Sonho, a photo opportunity designed to extend the emotional impact of the journey into a shareable moment. The final interaction with a giant animatronic ladybug adds one more layer of surprise, closing the experience with the same combination of tenderness, scale and technological wonder that defines the entire project.
Located at Shopping Eldorado in São Paulo, Gigantes do Jardim has been created for a broad audience and offers approximately 60 minutes of free exploration. Tickets are available through Fever, with different options including individual tickets, half-price tickets and group combinations. The exhibition is designed for all ages and positions itself as an ideal destination for families, school groups and anyone interested in immersive exhibitions, interactive experiences, edutainment, animatronics and new forms of cultural entertainment in Brazil.
For DXZ360, Gigantes do Jardim represents a further step in the development of immersive experiences capable of connecting entertainment, education and emotional design. The project confirms how shopping malls and urban venues can become powerful spaces for next-generation attractions, hosting formats that combine high-impact scenography, digital technologies and family-friendly storytelling. By bringing the microworld to monumental scale, the exhibition creates a new way to talk about nature, biodiversity and the hidden intelligence of ecosystems.
Gigantes do Jardim is more than a visit: it is a journey into a secret universe that has always existed just beneath our feet. Through animatronics, projection, interactivity and immersive scenography, DXZ360 transforms the garden into a world of discovery, inviting audiences in São Paulo to look at nature from a completely new perspective.
