Blankets and pillows are definitely something to take and I think any show would be a good time!

The show was good! Went for an hour almost. Could have been reduced a bit! Don’t forget to take your pillows and make yourself comfortable

Attended an event here. It was a really cool venue. The staff was helpful and the exterior grounds were really cool.

This place rocks! After freezing in line outside for 30 minutes, standing, as there is nowhere to sit to wait at 10 pm, we were walked back into the laser dome. Cost is $ 9 per adult. They have snacks and drinks relative to a movie theatre at a small table just before going in. The dome itself is like a small movie theatre with a lot of floor room down front. A lot of people brought pillows and blankets, and the gal in charge of the event encouraged people to relax and chill. We saw the special laser show put together by C89.5 with a variety of techno/club music. The room is totally dark which takes your eyes a minute to get use to, along with how loud the music starts, then you’re fine. The lasers are awesome and the shapes started out as simple designs like squares but then got a bit more in depth and complex as time went on. I’ll definitely be returning! Parking is ridiculous as it’s downtown and at the Space Needle.

I’ve been to the laser dome in Seattle twice now. Once for the GORILLAZ, and most recently for DAFTPUNK. I have a hard time giving the venue a single rating, because each show really is its own experience. If I’m to get the the point, I would say: GORILLAZ: 4⁄5 DAFTPUNK: 2⁄5 I’m very big fans of both groups. I saw Gorillaz on opening weekend, and loved it so much I went back next week to see Daft Punk with my wife and 8 more friends. Every person who went to Daft Punk ranged from thinking it was«OK» to «DISAPPOINTED». It may have to do with the fact that as a designer of entertainment myself, I am going to be critical. LASERGORILLAZ4⁄5(Great!) I walked out of this show like HOLYMOLY! That was AMAZING! I want to see it again! The laser show had a slow build up, but kept building momentum and wasn’t ever«terrible». What keeps it from being a 5⁄5 experience is because 1) What’s up with having laser do stuff behind you? there were one or two songs where there were the laser show went from above/in front to behind everyone. That, and those sections were always boring. Really really uninteresting laser work, in addition to no one can see it without looking backwards. WHYYYYYY??? 2) The music does not sound very good. It is an OK volume. Not very loud(the bass is loud), and anything with heavy use of words is pretty distorted. If you don’t know the words, you won’t pick them up here. The audio end is a letdown. The intro was really cool though introducing the characters and the group. The visuals throughout ranged from«OK» to «AWESOME!» LASERDAFTPUNK(2⁄5NOTGOOD!) When I left this show I was like MAN that sucked! In comparison to Gorillaz, this was a big letdown. There were sections where the action would ramp up, but then would drop the viewer like a sack of potatoes into terrible-tier entertainment. The visualizations of «Around the World» and the couple of Tron tracks were nice, but they used a LOT of their live performances which aren’t as good as their studio work(just my preference). Laser Daft Punk could be improved by fixing these issues: 1) Same as gorillaz. Laser work BEHIND the audience… WHY??? STOPIT! No one can see that stuff and its a boring as hell 3 minutes even if you can see it! Focus your show in the center of attention of where people are looking! 2) Same as Gorillaz: Horrible acoustics. 3) Change the music! There were a couple songs that sounded horrible! Like even more distorted than usual. And don’t use so many live versions! 4)Overuse of the bright white flash. In Gorillaz, it was used once… maaaaybe twice. they used it in this show 4 or 5 times. Too many! 5) Lots of over uninteresting sections, like the encore daft punk heads«talking». That needed to be way shorter. I can’t recall the other ones, but lots of «boring» sections with just a couple of moving lasers. 6) Aerodynamic seemed to go on longer than necessary… consider having an artist creatively edit or mashup some of their songs. The intro and finale were boring and uninspired, and the visuals during the main course ranged from«oooo this is getting good» to «is is uncomfortably lame». THEAUDIO There are other reviews hear commenting on how LOUD it is. I don’t know. To me, it wasn’t loud enough. If you’ve been to the Showbox at the Market(in Seattle), you’ve been spoiled by the amazing acoustics and the sheer volume and clarity of the sound. The sound in this place sounds terrible. It has loud bass, but anything with lyrics is drowned out. The highlight is of course the laser show, but the experience of both shows I attended was marred by how dirty and distorted the sound was. The Gorillaz sounded better than Daft Punk, and I am familiar with both bands. FINALNOTES Bring pillows! We were on the floor for both shows, and I imagine that’s the best place to be. Show up 45+ minutes early to be close to the front of the line to get good seats/floor space. Bring a date! Great 45 minute experience to bring a date to. I would like to see Gorillaz again, but would NOT recommend Daft Punk.

This is for the«EDM Laser Show»: Read another review suggesting drinks make the experience better so the girlfriend and I had a date-night consisting of dinner, dessert and drinks with the EDM Laser Show to finish up the evening. I’m not sure of the logistics as to what they can and can’t play but the music was bad. I wasn’t going into this expecting to hear some Zedd, Diplo, Dada Life or some other easily recognizable artist, but out of the 9+ songs we *Stayed* for only 2 were from actual artists(Lose myself — Alesso/OneRepublic 2013 and A City in Florida — Deadmau52010) and not some sounds mashed together. It seriously seemed like the logic to the music they played was«As long as we have repetitive bass we can just throw other sounds on it, EDM right?» The lasers were okay. A lot of it reminded me of the old Windows Media Player effects you could have playing that moved with the music. For the first minute and a half of each song the lasers would change, but repeat for the rest of the song and these were full songs(not songs mixed together) so you would see the same«live» laser set for each song for about 5−6min at a time. We ended up leaving halfway through the show because we were both starting to fall asleep. Unless you are taking a child or this is your first time experiencing«EDM» in a loud setting I don’t see how this would be considered fun ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This place is awesome. The sound system is incredible and although I was a little worried I would get bored of looking at lasers for 45 minutes, that was absolutely not the case. The visuals are really entertaining and easily keep your attention the entire time. $ 9 a show is a pretty good deal for a fun thing to experience in Seattle. Bring a pillow if you want to use the floor space to lay down, but the chairs lean back and are pretty comfortable. We saw Pink Floyd — Dark Side of the Moon, and it didn’t disappoint!

I’ve seen Pink Floyd«The Wall», Daft Punk, Laser Mau5 and Skrillex. All amazing shows. The sound system is absolutely insane and the music selection for each artist combined with the visuals, it’s almost better than seeing the artist live. ALMOST ;) **Make sure you get there about 30 – 45 minutes early to get a decent seat. If you’re going to be laying down, make sure you bring a pillow and blanket to lay on for ULTIMATECOMFORT. I absolutely love the Laser Dome

Whoaaaa Laser Dome man… Is that fog«medicated»?? Cuz it sure does make me feel like I’m one with the music and lights mannnn… Hey this place is pretty cool, we decided to check out one of the shows here and I was impressed with how entertaining it turned out to be. I like the option to lay on the ground or sit in the seats, and the show was longer than I had expected. I thought the music show selection was pretty good too, although I would suggest checking out the schedule online, we winged it and had to settle for what was playing at that time. I like the price too, not crazy expensive like everything else in the world these days. It was definitely fun and passed the time. I feel they should have some water. a lot of water. oh and some snacks. like cheetos, those chocolate covered pretzels, some skittles, and maybe some popcorn. yeah popcorn, with lots of butter and salt. Maybe a slurpee machine too…

I hadn’t been here since grade school but boy was I sure glad I came back. It was a great ‘escape from the world’ experience for me when I went not too long ago. My girlfriend kindly treated us out to a night here for the Deadmau5 show. We had a blast and even had some laughs with their artworks. It’s quite an intensive visually stimulating experience; sometimes I had to close my eyes for a few seconds before continuing. That might just be me though. I am sure the experience I’m sure it enjoyable no matter what show you’re there for. I highly recommend watching while laying on the floor for the experience rather than sit in the chairs. It’s a much better viewing experience. I would recommend bringing at least a pillow to rest your head on for comfort and if you’re up for it bring a blanket as well. I can’t wait to come back!

This show is best watched after you’ve had a couple drinks. Just sayin’… Bring a pillow and lay on the ground. It’s a fun idea but unfortunately, laser shows in a dome are not quite the same as outdoor shows. I think its worthy doing once and its fun enough.

Thanks to the CityPass we got to see the MJ show free. OMG! What an awesome show! The quality of the show was beyond my expectations and the show lasted nearly an hour. WOW!

We got free tickets to the laser show and it so happens to be the Michael Jackson showing woot woot! I thought it was going to be really quick but the show was about… 45 minutes I would say? The beginning of the laser-ing wasn’t that impressive. I was thinking — get me outta here, but I guess that was just the warm up. Towards the end of the show I was like, hey that was pretty cool! I don’t know how much the actual tickets are, but I wouldn’t pay more than $ 10 for them. :)

Protip: Bring a pillow for your head and maybe something soft to lay on. Being on the floor for the duration of Laser Daft Punk, while the show was good, was pretty hard on my butt! There’s seating, but I don’t know why anyone would choose to sit. There’s a ton of carpeted floor space to lay down for optimum enjoyment of the show. Daft Punk was definitely very very cool, but the music is conducive to this kind of stuff. There was also a DubStep that I think I’d love to come back and check out. The sound system is good; not too loud or quiet and perfectly adjusted to the dome building. This is well worth the money and it’s a good date activity. :)

This was a pretty neat activity to do at the Pacific Science Center. I had no idea it existed until the bf and I took his niece/nephew on a downtown Seattle excursion. We watched the Lady Gaga one and it was really cool! I recognized all the songs so I’m glad they included non-radio songs too. The songs that stood out for me were… Boys Boys Boys and Bad Romance! I had no idea what to expect and was a little confused when I saw people with pillows and blankets but apparently, they were the smart ones! It gets kind of tiring having to look up during the whole show so lying down on the floor is probably more comfortable. I’d be interested in seeing the Daft Punk show because it was a nice and different thing to do!

The Laser Dome is pretty cool. I’ve seen three shows here: Queen, Daft Punk, and Gaga. I liked the combination of the music and lasers in the Gaga one, but I think that the Daft Punk one was my favorite. Good sound system, that’s for sure — I could feel the bass in my chest during Gaga. Some of the lasers sort of remind me of visualizations on Windows Media Player, but some of them are pretty cool. I prefer the«scenes» that have laser pictures rather than just moving lines or circles. The ground isn’t too comfortable to lay on, but it’s just carpeting, so don’t expect more than that. Bring blankets, pillows, etc and you will not even notice it. Good place to bring the kids — they will enjoy it! It’s also a good date spot: my boyfriend and I saw Daft Punk together not long after we started dating and it was really fun. Bring pillows and cuddle up!

One of the best features of the Pacific Science Center, if you come for the laser matinees, it is only $ 3 if you have a ticket to the PSC itself. Otherwise, the evening shows are a very reasonable $ 9 — same price or cheaper than the movies! I’ve seen the Laser Beatles twice now and enjoyed it very much. First time we sat in the chairs and second time we laid down on the floor. Floor is better, although I wish I had brought a blanket or cushion for my back. You also have to watch out if it gets crowded, as someone kept bumping into me and nearly kicked me in the head once. They offer quite a range of shows from Michael Jackson to Gaga to No Doubt or Bob Marley, so you should be able to find one that suits your taste. And where else are you going to get to see an awesome laser show with a great, clear sound system.

I’ve been lucky enough to see several shows here over the last few years, and they never disappoint. Sound quality is amazing, you can actually FEEL the music, and the lasers just add to what can only be described as a fantastic experience. I don’t really understand why other Unilocalers are complaining about the price. Have they not figured out that everything at Pacific Science Center is overpriced? Plan accordingly people!

This place only gets three stars for the shear comedy of the whole thing. Otherwise it would only get 1.5. As we waited in the giant line(which I noticed has already been mentioned) I couldn’t help but wonder why so many people had pillows and blankets. Even more peculiar was why the people with blankets and pillows all seemed to be 18 under. Once inside, I finally understood. These are the kids who tell their parents they’re headed to the science center for some after hours«learning» aka grope and makeout session. I was completely in awe. The laser show was sweet. No complaints there. The candy was too expensive. And at $ 8 bucks, the laser show was a bit expensive also. I would love to do this in San Francisco and find out if the kids back here do the same shit or what?
