The experience is an awe-inspiring, immersive journey to space aboard the International Space Station. The walk-through experience is divided in 7 different chapters and lasts 60 minutes - 35 minutes in guided VR + 25 to 40 minutes at your pace.
We request that guests remain silent during THE INFINITE, as it truly heightens the experience for all space travelers.

The visit will take around 60 minutes.

During your visit you will be wearing an Oculus Quest 2 that has a resolution of 1832 x 1920 pixels per eye.

It is recommended that you arrive within the time stated on your ticket, but you can arrive within the next ten minutes.

If you miss your check-in time, you should speak to a staff member when you arrive for assistance and, if possible, we will try to accommodate you by giving you access to the site upon your arrival, or else sadly you will lose your ticket. Being on time is really important as if you were to get into a spaceship!

Yes. There is merchandise for sale on-site.

The experience is presented in English only.

THE INFINITE is perfect for a family with children ages 8 and over. Children under the age of 8 will not be admitted, not even little ones in baby carriers, as it is not recommended by VR manufacturers.

Children between 8 and 12 will have the opportunity to dive into THE INFINITE either in augmented reality with a tablet or in virtual reality with an OCULUS mask. However, they will only be able to do the latter if their accompanying parent or legal guardian signs the waiver acknowledging the risks and authorizing the activity. Children between 8 and 12 years old must be accompanied by an adult. Please note that the accompanying adult won't be able to supervise or assist the child during the VR portion. Here is a waiver to sign for kids between 8 & 12 years old. There will be a copy at the check-in of the experience (to consult the waiver).

The experience is designed to be as accessible as possible and offers numerous alternative ways to be experienced to accommodate the needs of individuals requiring special consideration.

If you have mobility concerns: the exhibition is outfitted with ramps throughout, and all entrances and exits are designed wide enough for manual wheelchairs, canes, walkers, or alternative manual mobility devices. For those with reduced mobility (RM), we have a few different options available to accommodate you:

1. Guests with reduced mobility and requiring the assistance of a companion

• To provide better guidance and to have a more enjoyable experience, companions of people with reduced mobility are strongly encouraged to do the virtual reality component as well. The intention is for both parties to share the virtual universe. One companion is entitled to free admission. Manual Transport Wheelchairs are available on-site free of charge for visitors to use.

2. Guest with reduced mobility attending alone

• During the virtual reality component of the experience, we can activate a slightly larger virtual protection radius around you. This is to help visitors respect your distance while you’re in the virtual space.

Options for Motorized Wheelchairs
• As the weight of some motorized wheelchairs may damage the sensitive technology underneath the free-roaming part of the virtual experience, we’re unable to accommodate all types of motorized vehicles. In these instances, you have three options available.
  1. Motorized Wheelchairs that can be put in manual mode can be treated as though you were using a Manual Transport Wheelchair. You’re entitled to a free admission for your companion who is encouraged to do the virtual reality component with you.
  2. For those in Motorized Wheelchairs who are unable to operate in manual mode, there’s also an option to see an edited seated documentary version that lasts approximately the same duration as the free-roaming part of the experience. While it’s not interactive, it’s a 360-degree immersive documentary that lets you experience life aboard the International Space Station.
  3. We can also provide a Manual Transport Wheelchair on-site free of charge.

We highly advise you to call in advance if you require the use of one of our Manual Transport Wheelchairs to ensure that it will be reserved for you.

You can still do the experience with hearing aids, please note that the headsets have headphones attached to them and that the volume can be adjusted as needed.
For visitors who are hearing impaired, English subtitles are available.

The experience is more comfortable if you use contact lenses because they are placed directly onto your eyes.
According to official documentation from Oculus, they recommend glasses that are 142mm or less wide and 50mm or less high. Anything more than that will likely have trouble fitting in the Quest 2 and most other headsets on the market

While it may seem like a medium so dependent on vision can’t accommodate individuals who are blind or have difficulty seeing, it’s still possible for them to participate in a version of the experience. Sound design in virtual reality is effective and interesting. VR technology allows for the realistic placement of sounds within a virtual space. This means that visitors can turn their heads and the sound will correspond to the placement of their head—it would still give the sensation as though they were really aboard the ISS. This is called ambisonic sound, and there’s ongoing research being done into the benefits of virtual reality, ambisonic sound design, and its application in creating experiences for the visually impaired. These visitors would, unfortunately, be limited to the seated experience to reduce the possibility of collision with other users in virtual reality. They’re equally entitled to a free ticket to accommodate a companion.

Due to the nature of the multi-user tracking technology, service dogs are permitted for the Space Walk portion of the experience. These visitors would, unfortunately, be limited to the seated experience to reduce the possibility of collision with other users in virtual reality. They’re equally entitled to a free ticket to accommodate a companion.

Yes, in an exclusive installation from world renowned Japanese artist Ryoji Ikeda. While the flashing lights are not damaging to the eyes, we do not recommend visitors who experience photosensitive epilepsy, who have a history of seizures, or who have a heart condition to partake in this installation. If you are at all concerned, please ask an available attendant after your free-roaming experience for directions to bypass these sections of the experience.

The virtual reality experience is safe and enjoyable, but can be uncomfortable for some people. It is not recommended for people with claustrophobia, heart problems, a history of seizures or epilepsy and/or sensitivity to flashing lights or 3D. One of the installations uses strobe lights.
People who are prone to motion sickness are also more likely to experience discomfort when using a virtual reality headset. Similar to the symptoms sometimes experienced when stepping off a cruise ship, vertigo may persist and increase within a few hours of use. Symptoms may also include drowsiness. These symptoms may increase the risk of injury when undertaking normal activities in the real world.

For those who experience motion sickness or vertigo, we have a few options:
1. We have the option for the experience to be done with the use of a tablet and augmented reality technology. This will let visitors share the same experience alongside their friends and family, and see what they're seeing.
2. We've also created an edited seated documentary version that lasts approximately the same duration as the free-roaming part of the experience. While it's not interactive, it's a 360-degree immersive documentary that lets visitors still experience life aboard the International Space Station.
