DESTINATION MARS

Head into outer space on this interactive experience where gaming wizardry plus captivating live action equals high-stakes adventure!

It’s 2034, and you are on the planet Mars. As the engineer in the control room on an international space station, you protect the base’s support systems and power up the next rocket launch. But when a solar flare plunges your community into danger, you must work together to avert disaster. Have you got what it takes to save the day?

From the makers of the popular APOLLO 13: Mission Control which toured the United States of America, Australia and New Zealand, HACKMAN has gathered a top team of game developers, designers and live performers to create Destination Mars.

Seated within a giant dome environment, Destination Mars is a completely immersive experience. Follow crew instructions, attend to your console, or marvel as the action unfolds.

High-tech yet full of heart, this 45-minute experience is the perfect escapism for grown-ups and intrepid kids aged 6+. Family packages are available.

Or secure a seat for the one-off child-free evening session of Destination Mars on Fri 22 April at 7.00pm - doors open at 6.15pm for drinks in Espresso on Level 4.

Saving Mars is bound to work up an appetite, so complete your ‘out of this world’ experience with the Destination Mars cosmic burger from Te Papa's Level 1 cafe. Book here.

From Thursday 14 April the whole of Aotearoa New Zealand is at Orange.

Destination Mars is running at limited capacity.
