AFRICA: The Serengeti
Approx. Running time: 45 Minutes

Africa: The Serengeti will introduce you to a spectacle that few humans have ever witnessed, the Great Migration. You will join the journey of over 1.5 million animals as they travel more than 500 miles across the Serengeti plains in Tanzania and Kenya. This film is a tribute to the wildebeest as they set out on their year-long odyssey, meeting along the way a fascinating array of animals including zebras, giraffes, elephants, monkeys, baboons and even hyenas, jackals and vultures, with an abundance of animal trivia.

This summer The Royal BC Museum is presenting Treasures, the World's Cultures from the British Museum, and the theatre is pleased to complement the exhibit by presenting three films that are considered Treasures in the IMAX world, Grand Canyon: Hidden Secrets, AFRICA: The Serengeti and the perennial favorite which returns every summer, Whales. Please be sure to take advantage of the opportunity to see these critically acclaimed and hugely popular films.

JOURNEY TO MECCA
Approx. Running time: 45 minutes

Now playing  alongside  Treasures: The World's Cultures from the British Museum being presented by the Royal BC Museum.
Follow Ibn Battuta, the greatest traveller in pre-modern history, in search of Mecca, the historical cultural centre of Islam. In 1325, he mounted a prancing steed and began a journey fraught with danger, enduring blinding snowstorms while in mountain passes and cruel mirages in the broiling desert. You will witness the Hajj as Ibn experienced it in the 14th century and as it is still experienced by over three million pilgrims today.
Narrated by Ben Kingsley.
OCEAN OASIS
Approx. Running time: 45 minutes

One of the most beautiful underwater places on earth, you'll plunge into the wildly spectacular Sea of Cortes and discover extraordinary sea life and swim with whales, dolphins, sharks and manta rays that are so enormous, they almost defy belief. Then you’ll come ashore to soar above the breathtaking snow-capped peaks of Baja California and explore the pristine beauty of the nearby tropical desert. This is an unforgettable IMAX experience in two untamed paradises you may not have known exist side by side . . . until now.
