The Giant Company Attractions Limited from Dublin, Ireland, has partnered with American Dream to develop the world’s first Giant visitor attraction called “The Giant” at American Dream.

The Giant will feature the world’s tallest moving statue standing 16.5 meters high (54 feet/5 stories).

The Giant is an androgynous anthropomorphic shaped statue with a skin of custom created video LEDs, its arms and head move to a diversity of positions.

The Giant instantly transforms into an infinite array of spectacular images. Using patented LED, AI and bespoke scanning technologies, The Giant comes to life displaying any person – men, women, and children – from celebrities and historical figures to visitors to the attraction.

In addition to the Giant statue, the attraction features The Giant Exhibition, a futuristic environment with a themed immersive visitor experience, volumetric scanning pods and other engaging elements.

Visitors to The Giant attraction are scanned in a state -of-the-art volumetric scanning theater and are displayed on the Giant statue resulting in the portrait of a lifetime and the most amazing selfie on earth. As the visitor is scanned a holographic avatar, an exact representation of the visitor is generated. This three-dimensional hologram is displayed and manipulated through the subject’s smartphone and can transport the visitor (through his/her avatar) to a variety of fascinating and engaging augmented and virtual reality environments and experiences.

Every hour The Giant puts on a show and performs for visitors to the center. The statue will transform into an extraordinary person – a giant from today or yesteryear – including, historical figures, contemporary stars, artists, celebrities, sports heroes, inventors, scientists, humanitarians, and other public figures.

In addition to its ability to morph into any person, The Giant’s arms and head move, adding to the drama of the performances. It also speaks, sings, and recites lines of verse and prose.

The anticipated opening is scheduled for January 2025.
