WIRED World Fair Brings Robots, AI and Immersive Art to Miami
Visitors will be able to explore simulated space missions and encounter humanoid robots when WIRED World Fair arrives at The Sacred Space in Miami on November 4, 2026. The publication’s inaugural fair pairs hands-on technology demonstrations with conversations about how emerging technologies affect culture, business and public life.
What Visitors Can Experience
WIRED’s announced installations include Unitree Robotics’ G1 humanoid robot and NASA XOSS, an immersive simulation of lunar and Martian mission environments. The art program features Marina Abramović’s Slow Walking, presented through a digital avatar, and Refik Anadol’s Large Nature Model, which explores nature through generative AI. Kinda Studios will bring Emergence, a sensory installation combining visual and sound experiences.
These are announced program elements, with further programming expected before the event.
Audience participation also extends to Reka’s demonstration, where visitors can describe a scenario and watch a generative experience respond.
Who Is Speaking?
The announced lineup includes Hugging Face cofounder and CEO Clément Delangue discussing AI ownership, and Seven Seven Six founder Alexis Ohanian addressing investment in emerging ideas. Wild Dolphin Project founder and research director Denise Herzing will discuss dolphin communication, while Colossal Biosciences cofounder and CEO Ben Lamm will address de-extinction.
The cultural program includes The Onion CEO Ben Collins on satire, plus actor Hunter Schafer and Blade Runner 2099 showrunner Silka Luisa discussing the future through science fiction. Writer Evan Ratliff and comedian Husk are also scheduled to explore the unexpected results of pushing AI systems to their limits.
