Airbnb is bringing to life some of the most beloved homes in pop culture with their new Icons category.

The new initiative revealed 11 new housing experiences arriving later this year. According to Airbnb, the newly introduced “Icons” will fully immerse guests in pop culture experiences “hosted by the greatest names in music, film, television, art, sports and more.”

Inspired by the Pixar film, guests can stay in the floating “Up” house. It’s a complete re-creation of Carl’s home, including more than 8,000 balloons located in Abiquiu, New Mexico.

There’s the house from “X-Men ’97,”  a recreation of the massive animated Xavier Institute from Marvel’s X-Men ’97, which now resides in Westchester, NY.

For the first time, the public will have the chance to stay in Prince’s Purple Rain House. Guests will also get a private tour of the home with an exclusive studio session included. 

Comedian and Actor Kevin Hart is inviting guests to the members-only Coramino Live Lounge for an A-list evening of tequila tasting and stand-up comedy.

Airbnb announced unique experiences in Paris, Milan, and more. However, there is a catch. Only a limited number of requests will be selected for each experience via lottery.
