The IMAX Theatre Sydney in Darling Harbour is home to the world\'s largest cinema screen at 29.42m high by 35.73m wide – covering an area of more than 1,015 square metres. They just don\'t come any bigger!

IMAX film based giant screen theatres boast some of the world\'s largest cinema screens. It is made possible by the projection of such large film frames and it will be some time before it can be replicated with digital projection systems. Up to eight storeys high, they are ten times larger than a tradtional cinema screen and fills the whole field of human vision.

Made of stretched vinyl, coated with a reflective silver paint they are stretched taut over a scaffold frame.

With thousands of small perforations they allow sound from speakers positioned behind the screen to play their key role in the total surround sound system.

Sound is critical to the IMAX film experience.
