Infinity Dome Movies

Movies in the 360-degree Infinity Dome theatre are handpicked to bring the most moving, educational and awe-inspiring subjects available to the giant screen! The unique architecture of the dome, along with full surround sound, guarantees an immersive and memorable documentary experience.

Please note that Spark is no longer booking private showings of dome movies for school groups. However, all school groups are invited to attend the public movie showings as part of their admission to Spark. Please check out the complete Spark movie schedule for show times.
