About
This 11-screen cinema in the EXPOCITY complex has one of Japan's biggest IMAX screens, over 18 m high and 26 m wide, with twin 4K laser projectors (IMAX with Laser/GT). It is the only cinema in western Japan that can show the full 1.43:1 IMAX picture, and it also has a 4DX theatre. Osaka's official tourism site lists it as an attraction.
