Is the show suitable for guests who are prone to seizures or motion sickness?

There are no strobe lights used in the production but there are some fast image and light transitions, so we would advise caution for those who suffer from seizures.

Equally, while the vast majority of our patrons have an amazing time with no issues, a small minority who are very susceptible to motion sickness find immersive entertainment slightly uncomfortable, so we would advise caution if you fall into this camp.

Is the show suitable for autistic people?

We have found that autistic people love our experiences, though everyone's experience may vary.
Please note the venue is dark and there is surround sound. We advise sitting at the end of a row if you think a quick exit might be required.

Our on-site staff will assist if you alert them at check-in.

The Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum

Dreams of flight have captured the imaginations of children and adults for centuries.

The Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum started as a shared enthusiasm for collecting vintage warbirds by Evergreen International Aviation founder Delford M. Smith and his son, Captain Michael King Smith. This is where the roots for fostering learning and preservation of aerospace history started.

The museum strives to create an environment that protects these pillars of aviation history and sparks a passion for flight in learners of all ages.

A part of the museum complex, the Evergreen Theater opened in 2007. Housed in a beautiful building made of steel and glass, this state-of-the-art screening hall has an incredible digital technology that makes images sharp and sounds clearer.
