The Midwinter Gala

Beyond seven mountains and seven forests, there’s a treasure called the Midwinter Heart. Whoever holds it is given a power, but no one who has held it will say what. This winter, on the longest night, it will be set out on a table at a gala. The Midwinter Gala is a live, free immersive theater experience from IRIS Interactive, set at a gala that keeps old midwinter customs. The crews are characters from four HoYoverse games: Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero and Honkai Impact 3rd. No knowledge of the games is needed. The show was written for guests who’ve never played them, and the characters introduce themselves and where they come from over the course of the night. Each guest joins a crew and spends the night with one of its characters. Characters speak with their guests, ask them questions and may bring them into scenes. Guests who come together may be split up.
