Opportunity: Immersive Arts Funding 2025

The final round of funding for Immersive Arts, a three-year programme encouraging artists to engage with immersive technologies, is now open with grants of £5,000, £20,000 and £50,000 available!


Immersive Arts is a groundbreaking UK-wide programme designed to help artists develop their practice using immersive technologies (virtual, extended, and augmented realities), working to break down barriers and making what can be an exclusive field of practice much more accessible.

With £3.6 million in funding available between 2024 and 2027, they’ll be supporting over 200 artists across the UK and providing the opportunity to explore, experiment, or expand how they work within this exciting field.

To help with the application process, Immersive Arts are running two online support events. Join them on Thu 24 July from 4–5pm for a Funding Webinar to hear more about this funding round and ask any questions, and on Mon 28 July from 4–5pm for an Access Drop-in to find out more about support available for artists with access requirements.

Applications close, Mon 29 September 2025.


How to apply:
There are three funding levels available and applicants should apply for the full amounts available in each (ie £5,000, £20,000 or £50,000). You do not require match funding to apply.

Explore – £5,000

Experiment – £20,000

Expand – £50,000

Deadline for all applications: Mon 29 September 2025


Immersive Arts is run by a collaborative consortium of ten partners who are embedded within the UK’s immersive arts and research communities, and committed to creating positive change in the sector – Pervasive Media Studio, University of Bristol, Cryptic, Nerve Centre, Wales Millennium Centre, Watershed, Crossover Labs, Unlimited, XR Diversity Initiative, and Immerse UK.
