Overview

MESMERICA

MESMERICA is a record-breaking dome experience that calms the mind and lifts the spirit. Award-winning composer James Hood brings together peaceful music and hypnotic, animated visuals from artists around the world. These elements create a powerful journey that encourages you to unwind and stay present.

Now playing inside MOSI’s NEW Saunders Planetarium & Digital Dome Theatre, MESMERICA surrounds you with immersive 360° projections and dynamic 7.1 surround sound. The show delivers a one-hour sensory escape that helps you relax, reflect, and reconnect.

The soundtrack centers around the Hang, a rare and melodic percussion instrument with naturally soothing tones. Paired with vivid 3D visuals, the performance feels like stepping into a living dream.

Since its debut, MESMERICA has captivated audiences across the U.S. and Canada. The show has sold over 800,000 tickets, setting records as the fastest-selling full-dome music experience in history.

In 2019, the Producers Guild of America recognized MESMERICA’s creative vision and immersive storytelling with a nomination for their first-ever Innovation Award. This honor highlights the show’s creative vision and technological brilliance.
