Lowry 360: Going To the Match
3 May – 31 August
To celebrate its 25th anniversary, the Lowry has launched its brand-new, free, immersive experience of L.S. Lowry’s painting,‘Going to the Match’, showing crowds streaming into a football match on a Saturday afternoon.
It is a powerful journey into the world of football, community, and culture – themes that reflect both L.S. Lowry’s art and everyday life in Salford.
Developed with world-renowned creative studio Layers of Reality, LOWRY 360 surrounds audiences with the sights and sounds of Going to the Match, transporting them into the painting before they can experience the original painting firsthand immediately after.
The six minute audio-visual experience uses super-high resolution animation and features an evocative narration from Bolton’s BAFTA-winning writer and performer Sophie Willan, who has strong links with the Lowry having been supported by the organisation’s Artist Development Programme early in her career.
Admission is free. You can book tickets here – tickets offer access to Lowry 360, Modern Life: the LS Lowry Exhibition and Quentin Blake and Me.
