Tim Burton’s highly anticipated art exhibit at the Neon Museum in Las Vegas is now open for ticket sales.

In 2018, the Neon Museum in Las Vegas revealed plans for an exhibition of Tim Burton's fine art. The event is eagerly awaited, as it marks Burton's first significant U.S. art show since his works were displayed at the Museum of Modern Art in New York a decade ago. Tickets for the exhibition, set for October, are now officially available.

Tim Burton, renowned for films like Batman (1989), Beetlejuice (1988), and Edward Scissorhands (1990), began his career as an artist. His signature artistic style earned him a position in Disney’s animation department during the early 1980s.

The exhibition at the Neon Museum will include both previously displayed works and new pieces, including sculptures and digital installations created especially for this event. A press statement notes: "Burton’s art will be showcased in Las Vegas in a way that blends the museum’s unique setting with his creative vision. The venue itself will be transformed, providing a one-of-a-kind experience for visitors."

The exhibition will span three locations on the museum grounds: the outdoor Neon Boneyard (a 'graveyard' of vintage neon signs), the North Gallery, and the City of Las Vegas's Boneyard Park. Alongside the main exhibition, a special nighttime event will feature projection mapping paired with the iconic sign collection. Burton's work will draw inspiration from both his career and the museum's unique environment. Although the museum has yet to reveal images of the specific artworks, they have shared some preview images to give a glimpse of what's to come.

"Lost Vegas: Tim Burton @ The Neon Museum, Presented by the Engelstad Foundation" opens on October 15, 2019, and will run until February 15, 2020. Tickets for the main exhibit are priced at $30, while access to the after-dark projection show will cost an additional $24. You can pre-purchase tickets for both experiences here.
