Gateway: a lifelike experience you won’t forget.

Next Nature & Gateway

Next Nature Museum is a place where humans, nature, and technology meet — and challenge each other. We show how technology is becoming our next nature, through interactive exhibitions, events, and education. That’s why our collaboration with Gateway feels like a natural next step. Guided by our future-forward vision and the idea of developing your own Next Nature, we now also embrace Synthetic Reality™.

Experience it for yourself at the iconic Evoluon in Eindhoven.

What is Synthetic Reality™?

Synthetic Reality™ is the next step beyond VR.
Where traditional virtual reality still feels like a game, Synthetic Reality™ convinces your brain that what you see, hear, and feel is real.

  • 150–200 m² of free movement space
  • No cables, no controllers
  • 360-degree visuals and audio
  • Full immersion without motion sickness
  • Powered by WiFi-7 streaming & external high-end rendering

What’s the difference between VR and Synthetic Reality™?

VR uses a headset, but often feels artificial. Synthetic Reality™ is more advanced — your brain accepts it as real, without disorientation or nausea.

Can it be combined with the museum?

Yes. You can book a Synthetic Reality™ experience separately or as a discounted combo ticket with the Next Nature Museum.

Who is it for?

Suitable for ages 8 and up. Perfect for anyone curious about the future of experience and technology.

Is it safe?

Yes. No cables or obstacles, and you’ll be guided by our crew. Nausea is rare — your body and brain stay in sync.
