Designed by award-winning architect Eberhart Zeidler, over four million visitors have viewed the 28 films that have played at the theater since it opened in December 1996.

 

The Dome's thundering acoustics come from its 13,000 watts of digital wrap-around sound from 14 carefully placed speakers.

 

The Dome has 320 theater seats and an 80 foot-wide (24 meters) by 10 story-high spheroid screen that covers one's entire peripheral eye spectrum creating an incredible sense of visual realism!
