IMAX Melbourne is Australia's only independent, standalone IMAX theatre, delivering the country's most immersive movie experience.
AUSTRALIA'S LARGEST SCREEN
At 32 metres wide and 23 metres tall, IMAX Melbourne isn’t just big, it's the Southern Hemisphere's biggest screen and the world’s largest 1.43:1 screen.
FILMED FOR IMAX®
IMAX partners with filmmakers to harness IMAX's technology, from pre-production to release to deliver the world's most immersive experience.
Using IMAX film or IMAX-certified digital cameras, filmmakers like Christopher Nolan shoot specifically with IMAX's 1.9:1 or 1.43:1 aspect ratios in mind.
SCREEN SIZE
We are home to the world’s largest 1.43:1 cinema screen, measuring 32 metres in width by 23 metres in height, and this unrivalled scale transports our audience right into the action.
IMAX 70MM FILM
Home to Australia's only IMAX 70mm Film projector, IMAX 70mm Film has a native resolution of up to 16K and is 3x larger when compared to regular 70mm film.
The combination of the superior image quality, the scale of the presentation and the natural warm tones of the film print creates a truly immersive experience.
DUAL 4K LASER PROJECTION SYSTEM
IMAX Melbourne is home to Victoria's only IMAX dual 4K Laser projection system, the most powerful and technologically advanced system available. Our system uses high-powered Laser light engines to project the best on-screen presentation possible.

Exclusive to IMAX cinemas, this expanded aspect ratio is the largest cinema image in the world, showing 40% more picture than the standard cinema aspect ratio (2:39:1). At IMAX Melbourne, sequences shot in this aspect ratio fill the entire seven-storey tall screen.
IMAX EXPANDED ASPECT RATIO - 1.9:1
