Abstract. We present FIESTA, a prototype system for collaborative immersive analytics (CIA). In contrast to many existing CIA prototypes, FIESTA allows users to collaboratively work together wherever and however they wish---untethered from mandatory physical display devices. Users can freely move around in a shared room-sized environment, author and generate immersive data visualisations, position them in the space around them, and share and communicate their insights to one another. Certain visualisation tasks are also supported to facilitate this process, such as details on demand and brushing and linking.
