Welcome to the Illuminarium in Atlanta—the next generation in immersive cinematic entertainment. Ten thousand square feet in size, the space features gigantic 4K screens at every turn, state-of-the-art spatial sound systems, and haptic flooring that allow you to feel the action, interactive features, and scents that put you in the environment.

The experience is breathtakingly beautiful. You can feel the animals walking nearby. You can smell the grass of the Masai Mara and the water of Samburu. The images are awe-inspiring as you are up-close and personal with these fantastic creatures and the African skies.
