Last Chance to See IMAX Blockbusters this Summer

Essential maintenance to our roof means that we will not be showing IMAX films after Sunday 5 September for approximately four weeks. So this is your last chance to see the latest IMAX blockbusters before our IMAX theatre closes temporarily.

Remember - you can get 20% off, so that gives you even more reason to come and visit. Simply download your 20% off voucher and book now through our box office. Call 0844 856 3797.

Make sure you’re one of the first people to see the eagerly anticipated Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole, showing in IMAX 3D from 15 October.

We hope to have the works completed as soon as possible. The rest of the Museum will remain open as normal.

The IMAX Experience

Seeing an IMAX film at the National Media Museum is like no other cinema experience. Whether you are watching a classic IMAX film, a 3D IMAX film full of spectacular effects or the latest Hollywood blockbuster digitally re-mastered for the ultimate film format – IMAX is for everyone.

DMR – a new way of seeing blockbuster films

Using IMAX DMR Technology, 35mm films are digitally re-mastered into the giant IMAX format. With wraparound sound and stunning visual clarity, the film is 10 times larger than its original format – and is an experience not to be missed.
