All aboard The Polar Express: An IMAX 3D Experience for an inspiring journey to the North Pole, as seen in IMAX 3D only on the biggest screen in Austin!
Just in time for the holidays, The Polar Express is coming back in 3D only to the IMAX Theatre of the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum for a limited run in December.
Based on the classic Caldecott medal-winning children's book by Chris Van Allsburg, this feature-length film reunites the Academy Award-winning team of Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis (Cast Away, Forrest Gump).
State-of-the-art computer-generated animation and "performance capture" technology create a unique blend of realism and fantasy, allowing the actors' live-action performances to drive the emotions and movements of the digital characters.
The Polar Express: An IMAX 3D Experience tells the story of a doubting young boy who takes an extraordinary train ride to the North Pole and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. In IMAX 3D, snow flurries seem to whirl around movie-goers' heads, and the chugging of the train's engine resonates through 44 different speakers mounted throughout the theater for a full surround-sound effect.
Ticket prices for this feature-length, special engagement film are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors/military and $8 for youth ages 18 and under.
Museum Members receive $1 off ticket price. Free membership vouchers, discounts, special passes and other promotions are NOT valid for this film. Click here to learn about member discounts.
