From exhilarating natural wonders to enriching cultural moments and beyond, Illuminarium delivers a sensory experience like no other.Illuminarium is brought to life through an unprecedented blend of 4K laser projection providing guests a connected and shared entertainment journey, audio beams creating a unique and precise sound experience for each individual, in-floor haptics producing realistic sensations for visitors, and even scent, adding authentic enhancement to the immersive experience. Our cinematic immersion will place you into the middle of the narrative unfolding around you. This is achieved with no wearable hardware of any kind - this is not a 3D or 4D experience.Strobe effects, gentle floor vibration, immersive sound, and realistic & responsive projection may all be part of the show you experience, but nothing is intended to be frightening or disorienting. The intensity of the various elements will depend on the featured show.The experience takes place completely indoors within two rooms. Our café offers an outdoor patio that opens directly onto the BeltLine.

We constantly have new shows under development! SPACE, WAKING WONDERLAND, and O'KEEFFE: One Hundred Flowers After Dark are our currently-featured experiences. Please visit our complete show calendar to confirm which shows are playing on which dates and at which times.
