Meow Wolf’s The Real Unreal

Slated to open July 14th of 2023, The Real Unreal is a cosmic odyssey in the Grapevine Mills within the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Participants will embark on a journey through a technicolor wonderland that blends storytelling, technology, and immersive art.

A missing boy, a chosen family, and Hapulusgarrulus Lophoaquaflori all lie at the center of The Real Unreal’s story, conceived by author LaShawn Wanak. The experience encourages participants to explore different dimensions of perspective and creativity through more than 30+ rooms of multidimensional art and compelling narrative.

The Real Unreal brings together 150 artists and fabricators, including 38 from Texas, who have created the artistic installations making up 70 unique and captivating experiences within The Real Unreal. Artists of all forms – including muralists, sculptors, photographers, undermallers, and video game designers – have collaborated on a truly unique installation that will immerse visitors in a captivating narrative.
