3D cinema is the way of the future and the latest development in cinema technology. At time of printing, there are over 100 3D films in production and due for release over the next 2 or 3 years. This small surcharge assists us in offsetting the cost of installing our 2K digital projectors into ALL locations so you can have a digital 3D cinema near you.

What is the difference between 2D and 3D?

You get cool glasses and a unique movie experience! 3D works by presenting viewers with a slightly separated set of images for the left and the right eye in such quick succession that our brain perceives the images as appearing at the same time and having a field of depth. The glasses ensure that the right eye only see the images intended for right eye and the same for the left eye.
