The Grand Hall Experience at St Louis Union Station in St Louis, US, has recently undergone a major upgrade, involving new projection technology, media servers, and new and refreshed content.

The former train station’s Grand Hall now serves as a hotel lobby, event space, and attraction – and features The Grand Hall Experience, combining projection mapping onto the massive and ornate 65-foot-tall ceiling with lights, music, and narration.

DreamLab Immersive designed and installed the system, selecting Christie Griffyn® 4K50-RGB pure laser projectors and Jazz Series 1DLP laser projectors to create a next-generation immersive show environment.

Lodging Hospitality Management (LHM) and DreamLab saw an opportunity to raise the visual and emotional impact of the show”, says John Miceli, founder and executive creative director of DreamLab Immersive. “The primary goal was to bring the experience up to current technological standards, upgrading to higher resolution, smoother frame rates, richer colour, and more dynamic shows, while preserving the architectural integrity and magic of the space.”
