Beyond the Lens is filled to the brim with totally unique selfie opportunities. Capture a split second in time with the 180° cameras of the Bullet Timer. Lounge on a pile of $50,000,000 cash. Rock out with Elvis in front of the giant green screen. Blast off into space with Neil Armstrong for the first moon walk, or #BreakTheInternet with a sensual champagne toast. These are selfie moments you won’t find anywhere else!

With over 6,000 reported sightings of Bigfoot in the US alone, there’s a chance he’s been spotted in your neck of the woods. Find out for yourself in the Search for Bigfoot, an interactive experience full of sights, sounds, and convincing encounters. Keep your eyes peeled! You might just catch some photographic evidence of your own!

In the human kaleidoscope, one moment, a trip through space—the next, like Alice’s journey down the rabbit hole. Flashing lights and pulsing colors turn this 20’ long kaleidoscope into an ever-changing sensory experience. Each selfie is different from the last, but they’ll all look incredible.

Using your phone’s camera and the Beyond the Lens app, search for the yellow dots scattered throughout the building. Each dot comes to life in the form of a crazy celebrity pet! Collect all 20 and show them to a staff member for a prize!

If there had only been a camera in the right place at the right time, history’s biggest crimes wouldn’t be so controversial today.
