4D Theater - Georgia Aquarium

Dive Into Our Immersive 4D Theater Experience

As a part of our phased approach to reopening, we have made the decision to reopen our dolphin and 4D theater presentations with individual seat reservations. You will be able to make your reservations when you arrive for your visit.

Experience the underwater world from an animal’s point of view. By combining the highest quality 3D high definition projection with special effects, Georgia Aquarium’s 4D Theater allows guests to do exactly that. One of the most advanced theaters in the world, this show features interactive seats and unique special effects that are built into the theater itself. By creating a set of “4D” effects that are synchronized to the film production, the 4D Theater adds another layer of immersive fun for audiences.
