What is Full Dome Projection Hire and Why Does Your Event Need It?
Full dome projection hire is the pinnacle of modern event technology. It’s a 360-degree immersive environment that uses high-performance media servers and hemispherical domes to surround your audience completely. Forget the limitations of a flat screen. This setup places people inside the content, creating a total sensory takeover. We’ve spent over 11 amazing years perfecting this technology, reaching 1,283,850 engagements worldwide. Whether you’re hosting a corporate product launch or an educational workshop, our systems provide the “Wonder Factor” that standard displays simply can’t match. Our premium geodesic domes are available in a range of sizes, designed for rapid deployment anywhere on the planet. We offer three flexible ways to access this technology: through hire, purchase, and franchise options.
The Magic of 360-Degree Immersive Shows
Our 360-degree visuals create a stunning universe of possibilities for every guest. We offer a library of content covering 13 different subjects, ranging from the deep mysteries of astronomy to the intricate structures of biology. Modern technology has evolved traditional planetariums into high-energy experientials. These aren’t just for stargazing anymore. They’re vibrant STEM futures workshops and high-impact brand activations. Every show is a journey through time and space. Some of our most popular subjects include:
- Astronomy and live stargazing performances
- Marine biology and deep-sea exploration
- Dinosaur encounters and prehistoric history
- Physics and chemistry simulations
Exceptional Value for Modern Event Planners
Event planners find exceptional value in our turnkey services. Choosing full dome projection hire often provides a higher ROI than individual VR headsets because it’s a shared social experience. You can host large groups of 10 to 100+ people simultaneously, which increases your engagement metrics and lowers the cost per head. Our turnkey solutions include everything from setup to technical support, removing the stress of event logistics. Our commitment to excellence also fuels our social responsibility. By choosing us, you support The Spectrum Place in Milton Keynes, helping us provide inclusive, sensory-friendly experiences for neurodiverse groups. We bring award-winning worldwide planetariums and experientials to your doorstep, no matter where you’re located.
Premium Geodesic Domes: The Engineering Behind the Experience
Premium geodesic domes represent the pinnacle of immersive event technology. When you choose a full dome projection hire, you aren’t just renting a temporary structure; you’re commissioning a marvel of modern engineering. Our patented geo-frame technology ensures 100% structural integrity, providing a perfectly spherical canvas for high-resolution media. This precision allows us to create a seamless “digital skin” that wraps around your audience, making the technology disappear so the story can take center stage.
We provide exceptional value by offering the world’s largest range of sizes. Our inventory spans from intimate 4m domes for VIP activations to massive 24m+ structures that accommodate over 500 guests at major festivals. Every dome is designed for rapid deployment. Thanks to our advanced server technology and streamlined logistics, our expert teams often complete a standard setup in under 4 hours. This speed makes full dome projection hire a viable option for tight event schedules where every minute counts.
Portable vs. Permanent Dome Structures
While inflatable planetarium domes are fantastic for schools and indoor workshops, high-end corporate events require the architectural elegance of a premium geodesic dome. These metal-frame structures offer superior stability and can withstand winds up to 60mph. This makes them the reliable choice for UK outdoor festivals and international tours alike. We offer these structures through three flexible routes: hire, purchase, and franchise options. Our global reach means we can deploy these world-class environments to any corner of the globe, from London to Dubai.
Cutting-Edge Projection Servers and Visuals
Visuals are everything in a 360-degree environment. We use 30,000-lumen laser projectors and proprietary calibration software to eliminate visible seams and distortion. This creates a flawless 8K resolution experience that feels entirely natural to the human eye. Our technical team specializes in bespoke solutions for unique venue challenges. We’ve successfully installed domes in spaces with 3m low ceilings and tight 10m gallery areas by using custom lens configurations. With 11 years of experience and over 1.2 million engagements, we know how to make the impossible possible.
Our commitment to innovation is matched by our dedication to social responsibility. We proudly support The Spectrum Place, a charity based in Milton Keynes that provides vital services for neurodiverse individuals. Supporting this cause is a core part of our mission as we bring magical experiences to audiences worldwide. If you’re ready to transform your next brand activation, you can explore our full range of event services to find the perfect fit for your vision.

Our team creates “safe spaces” within the dome for neurodiverse audiences by adjusting sensory inputs. We typically lower sound levels by 15 to 20 decibels and soften light transitions to prevent sensory overload for SEND students.

By prioritizing neurodiversity, your event becomes a welcoming environment for all, reflecting a modern approach to social responsibility.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much space is required for a full dome projection hire?
You need a clear floor area approximately 1 meter larger than the dome’s external diameter to ensure a safe and professional setup. For a 6-meter premium geodesic dome, we require a 7-meter by 7-meter footprint with a minimum ceiling height of 4 meters. Our massive 24-meter structures require significantly more clearance, but our team manages every technical detail to provide exceptional value for your global events.
Can the geodesic domes be set up outdoors in the UK weather?
Our premium geodesic domes are specifically engineered to withstand the unpredictable UK weather using 100% waterproof covers. The patented geo-frame technology is wind-rated for speeds up to 60 miles per hour, ensuring your event remains a magical experience regardless of the forecast. Whether you choose to hire, purchase, or franchise, these robust structures have delivered over 1,283,850 engagements in diverse climates since 2013.
Do you provide the content and shows, or do I need to supply them?
We provide instant access to a stunning library of over 200 award-winning fulldome 360 shows. These include incredible curriculum-linked STEM programs and cinematic adventures in 4K resolution, meaning you don’t need to supply your own media. Our technical experts can also integrate your bespoke branding or custom content, a service that has made us a trusted partner for high-profile clients like the BBC and Oxford University.
Is full dome projection hire suitable for people with epilepsy or sensory issues?
Full dome projection hire is an inclusive experience when managed by our expert team who specialize in SEND-friendly performances. We offer dedicated sensory modes with adjusted light and sound levels to ensure a comfortable environment for neurodiverse guests. Our commitment to social responsibility includes supporting “The Spectrum Place,” a Milton Keynes charity, ensuring our 11 years of expertise benefits every member of the community.
How long does it take to install a premium geodesic dome?
A standard 6-meter premium geodesic dome takes our professional crew just 90 minutes to fully install and calibrate. Larger structures like our 10-meter or 15-meter models require between 4 and 6 hours depending on the technical complexity of the 360-degree projection system. This rapid deployment capability allows us to offer exceptional value and efficiency for activations anywhere in the world.
Do you offer full dome hire services outside of the United Kingdom?
We provide our award-winning full dome projection hire services across the entire globe, reaching audiences on every continent. Our logistics team handles international deployments with precision, bringing a universe of possibilities to global festivals, corporate launches, and educational summits. You can hire, purchase, or franchise our technology worldwide, benefiting from a brand that has led the industry for over 11 amazing years.
What is the difference between a mobile planetarium and a geodesic dome?
A mobile planetarium typically uses an inflatable, air-supported structure that’s perfect for indoor school visits and sets up in 20 minutes. A premium geodesic dome uses a rigid, patented geo-frame that’s better suited for high-capacity outdoor events and long-term installations. Both options deliver stunning 360-degree visuals, and we offer both styles for hire, purchase, or franchise to suit your specific event needs.
How can I purchase a dome or start a franchise with Immersive Experiences?
You can purchase a premium geodesic dome or join our global network as a franchisee by contacting our head office through our website. We provide comprehensive training and technical support based on our 11 years of experience as a world-leading provider of immersive entertainment.
