The SIGGRAPH 2026 Immersive Pavilion gathers outstanding content in virtual reality, augmented reality, mixed reality, and beyond! This is a place for contributors and participants to engage in critical discourse on the latest interactive breakthroughs and support for hybrid environments. The Immersive Pavilion seeks submissions with these criteria in mind. First, experiential content is both narrative and non-narrative based. This includes interactive techniques that solve pragmatic needs for productivity, development, and design challenges — all of which are encouraged. But it also includes social experiences, games, and artistic expression. Second, the Immersive Pavilion is platform-agnostic and can include augmented, virtual, and mixed reality; interactive projection mapping; or multi-sensory installations, among others.
For 2026, in addition to our typical content we’re spotlighting submissions that reflect the exciting evolution of VR, AR, and XR with a strong emphasis on live performance. We seek to highlight content that leverages virtual production and performance capture of all types in immersive media. Think real-time environments, motion capture, LED volumes, in-camera visual effects (ICVFX), and any hybrid workflows that bridge the spaces between real-time technology and human performance. If your content was created with these interactive components, please make sure to detail these in your submission.
SIGGRAPH recognizes that diverse contributions stem from academic, professional, and independent fronts, awarding Best in Show and publishing abstracts in the ACM Digital Library.
