Preceding IPS-IMERSA Day the festivities start with a special »Best of the Jena FullDome Festival«. The FullDome Festival started back in 2007 and has become a leading international forum to showcase, discuss and award fulldome productions, ranging from classic astronomy films to avant-garde 360° music and theatre shows.
This special IPS-festival will feature a curated selection of recent entries from around the world that were submitted to the FullDome Festival - May 23-26, 2024.
Excitement grows when on July 19 it will be announced who will win the prestigious JANUS-Awards, kind of the »Oscars« of fulldome.
The ceremony around the shining JANUS-trophy will be streamed live from the Zeiss-Planetarium to the world.
All films that are nominated for the Janus at the Fulldome Festival in May, will be shown again at the IPS 2024 FullDome Festival Best Of (July 18-19) and have the chance to win the Janus Award during the event. You must submit your film to the Fulldome Festival for it to have a chance of being shown at the Fulldome Festival Best Of during IPS 2024!
