IMAX Melbourne Celebrates 20 Years with the Re-release of MacGillivray Freeman’s Everest

Author: Administrator Account/Wednesday, May 2, 2018/Categories: Latest Headlines

May 2, 2018—IMAX Melbourne celebrates its 20th anniversary on May 22. The theater will re-release MacGillivray Freeman’s groundbreaking 1998 documentary film Everest on IMAX 15/70 film on May 22 to celebrate 20 years of immersive giant screen movies.

“We’re so very proud—for 20 years—to have been able to offer Melburnians the world-leading standard in on-screen image and immersive sound that is inherent in the IMAX brand. From the original mechanical large format 15 perforation 70mm film system (still in operation) through to the cutting-edge, next-generation IMAX laser digital projection system (the first Laser system installed in Australia), IMAX provides an unrivaled premium cinema experience. We’d like to sincerely thank all of our passionate fans and loyal customers for making IMAX Melbourne the cinema destination of choice,” says IMAX Melbourne General Manager Richard Morrison.

 

About IMAX Melbourne
Home to the world’s largest cinema screen, Melbourne’s IMAX is an independent, custom-built, single screen theatre located in the Melbourne Museum’s west wing. IMAX Melbourne screens giant-screen documentary films and Hollywood blockbusters in IMAX 2D and IMAX 3D. In 2015, IMAX Melbourne became the first theatre outside of North America and the fifth in the world to install the revolutionary IMAX 4K laser projection system, which now sits alongside the original IMAX 15/70 film projector. The screen measures 32 metres wide by 23 metres high and the epic IMAX sound system outputs 15,000 watts of digital surround sound. IMAX Melbourne is open every day of the year except Christmas Day, from 10am until late. Since opening in 1998, IMAX Melbourne Museum has attracted over 6.5 million visitors. https://imaxmelbourne.com.au
