THE AULA Viking Resident Scientists provide invaluable insight SETTING A NEW STANDARD, Viking has created the world’s most advanced venue for learning at sea. The Aula, a stunning panoramic auditorium, was inspired by the University of Oslo’s famed Aula ceremonial hall, which used to be the venue for the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony. This unique space on our expedition ships features an 8K laser-projected panoramic screen spanning nearly the entire width of the room, and is used for lectures, daily briefings, science presentations and films. Two decks high, The Aula has raked seating to ensure optimal views from every location and plentiful Marius-weave blankets to provide comfort. But The Aula is so much more, because the panoramic screen retracts, cantilevering up into the ceiling and exposing a wall of windows. A 270° VIEW SURROUNDS GUESTS IN THIS INCREDIBLE VENUE. With floor-to-ceiling glass on three sides of the auditorium, nature takes centre stage. In addition, the large bottom windows of the stage wall slide open, providing al fresco access to the adjacent Finse Terrace and creating a magnificent indoor-outdoor experience, immersed in nature. Envision a Viking Resident Scientist lecturing on cephalopods while guests catch a glimpse of breaching humpbacks; or relaxing by the heated lava rock “firepits” on the Finse Terrace with a Viking ornithologist, discussing a bald eagle overhead. Lectures can even be presented with the windows unencumbered by the panoramic screen — with a smaller, pop-up screen for lecturers to enhance guests’ understanding of the natural world unfolding around them.
