Immersive Artist-Designed Pop-Ups

Amex's Live Life Experience Features a Foam Pit and Secret Rooms

The Live Life Experience by American Express has opened its doors, bringing travel, adventure, art and play to Toronto's bustling Queen West neighborhood.

Local art, hidden rooms, giant ramen bowls, mythical creatures and an expansive foam pit are just some of the unique experiences guests can immerse themselves in as they moved from room to room. Sitting at the intersection of art and entertainment, each themed space in this 12,000 square foot facility boasts a social media-friendly aesthetic, making for the perfect photo op for its guests. Whether traveling, dining, entertaining or just having fun, each themed room in the Live Life Experience reminds consumers that Amex has their back.

While the forward-thinking district in Toronto is no stranger to pop-ups, this particular experience was so unique and well-received, that Amex extended its availability, keeping the event open for another week. The event will run until June 16th.
