#FIRSTLOOK: NEW “THE PLANETARIUM EXPERIENCE” AT ARCADIA EARTH

This week, a new immersive installation launching at Arcadia Earth Toronto! This isn’t just another room – The Planetarium Experience is a brand new cinematic journey housed inside a larger than life 360º dome featuring the film: A Vision for Tomorrow, only available at Arcadia Earth Toronto this summer.

This never-before-seen visually stunning, 360° planetarium experience features an original film created by Arcadia Earth, A Vision for Tomorrow. This film will surround you with breathtaking imagery, sound, and storytelling – immersing you in a powerful, hope-filled narrative about freshwater conservation and our planet’s future. This 20-minute experience is designed to inspire, amaze, and explore one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time: the conservation and restoration of freshwater sources.

Through awe-inspiring visuals and powerful storytelling, A Vision for Tomorrow delivers a hopeful, action-driven perspective on how we can collectively build a more sustainable future. This is what happens when sound, light, and beauty conspire. Exclusively at Arcadia Earth Toronto, this new experience is unlike anything else at the exhibit and it’s something you won’t want to miss!
