The classic Pink Floyd album is brought to life with a stunning fulldome digital interpretation of the sounds and imagery of “The Wall.” The Pink Floyd rock opera album, following the protagonist character “Pink,” was released in 1979, and quickly rose to number one on the Billboard 200.

Now audiences can have a complete immersive experience through the 10,000 watt 5.1 and high-resolution CGI graphics in the ‘Imiloa planetarium, from the hit songs “Another Brick in the Wall Part 2,” the melodic “Comfortably Numb,” to the sinister tranquility of “Goodbye Blue Sky,” and the classic “Run Like Hell.”

This digital masterpiece from Starlight Productions leaves the audience wanting more when “Pink’s” wall comes tumbling down.

Adult advisory: The subject matter of some songs and graphics may not be appropriate for kids. Not recommended for audiences under age 14.
