Travel and Tourism

Interactive Virtual Worlds offer considerable benefits to the travel and tourism industry, providing an engaging platform for audiences to tour the local area, visit local attractions, collaborate and take part and witness simulations of historical events.

By creating a virtual world you can:

  • Allow the audience to virtually tour cities and its attractions wherever they are in world, encouraging them to visit for real.
  • Host online events allowing your organisation to attract a global audience.
  • Tell the story behind the picture by creating a simulation of past events which the audience can participate in.

See below some examples of how companies with similar objectives have used virtual world technology:

Manchester Central

Second Places were engaged by Manchester Central Exhibition Centre to create a replica of their real life building in the popular Manchester Second Life Island. This project allowed the audience to attend conferences virtually.

Urbis Museum

Second Places created a replica of the Real Life Urbis Museum within Second Life Manchester which allows the audience to tour the museum, attend events and much more.

Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra

Second Places created the first ever professional orchestra performance in Second Life, on behalf of their client the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.
