The second permanent installation from Meow Wolf is the anchor space of AREA15. Omega Mart tickets have sold out for the first weekend.
“From humble beginnings as an art collective in Santa Fe, Meow Wolf is proud to open our second permanent installation at AREA15 in Las Vegas,” said Jim Ward, co-CEO of Meow Wolf.
“Omega Mart is a visionary project and an ambitious exhibit brought to life by the creative genius of our team of artists and collaborators. We can’t wait for visitors to see what we have in store.”
Omega Mart is billed as ‘America’s Most Exceptional Grocery Store’. It boasts four themed areas and 60 unique environments.

On the exhibit’s second level is Dramcorp, a fictional, family-owned business. The Tron-inspired office space is set in a labyrinth-style maze.
