Dendy Cinemas Canberra is set to revolutionise the moviegoing experience just in time for Christmas with the world’s most immersive film experience when the new IMAX® theatre opens to the public on December 19.
The theatre will feature IMAX with Laser technology, a next generation laser projection and multi-channel sound system exclusive to IMAX theatres. IMAX with Laser is immersive by design, developed from the ground-up to deliver crystal clear, lifelike images and precision audio for a moviegoing experience unlike anything else. The Red Carpet will be rolled out for the first time when Dendy’s IMAX opens on Tuesday December 17 from 6:00pm with the exclusive ACT Premiere of Disney’s MUFASA: THE LION KING with special guests and VIPs getting the first chance to experience the custom cinema.
Sharon Strickland, Chief Executive Officer, Dendy Icon Group says “Dendy Cinemas has been a cherished part of Canberra’s cultural fabric, proudly standing as the largest cinema in the territory. We are thrilled to introduce Canberra’s very first IMAX, elevating the movie-going experience for our loyal patrons. As the first independent cinema circuit in Australia to collaborate with IMAX, this partnership marks an exciting new chapter for us. We can’t wait to celebrate this milestone alongside our community, just in time for Christmas with an incredible lineup of blockbuster films this summer holiday season.”
“We’re excited to launch our partnership with Dendy Cinemas as we expand our presence in Australia — a nation with a vibrant moviegoing culture and tremendous potential for IMAX,” said Giovanni Dolci, Chief Sales Officer at IMAX. “Audiences in the country’s capital will soon experience the unparalleled clarity and immersive sound of IMAX, just in time for our exceptional holiday film line-up and an exciting slate of Filmed For IMAX titles extending through 2025.”
