- Glasgow Science Centre Launches ‘The Atrium’ with Futuristic Pyrotechnics
5-star visitor attraction, the Glasgow Science Centre (GSC) has unveiled a £1million futuristic glass space known as ‘The Atrium’, which will be a spectacular new events venue for the city.
The 500m2 area within Glasgow Science Centre has the capacity to hold banquet dinners for up to 400 guests, cocktail receptions for up to 500, awards ceremonies plus product launches, exhibitions and fashion shows.
With floor to ceiling glass, stretching three storeys, The Atrium is entered via a lit walkway over Glasgow Science Centre’s moat. Views through the glass show the striking curves of the Centre’s planetarium dome. Sparkling star cloth on the north and south walls adds to the dramatic entrance.
To coincide with the launch of the Atrium, Glasgow Science Centre has also unveiled the theatre of science – a pioneering new entertainments package for corporate events.
The Centre has worked with leading Glasgow theatre company, Theatre Modo, to create the first theatre of science – a selection of science-themed theatrics, which features futuristic pyrotechnic spectaculars, fiery creatures and party guests with an unexpected scientific twist.
An animated fly-through of the new space, which also benefits from state-of-the-art audio visual installation, is available at: http://atrium.glasgowsciencecentre.org/
