🎥It's a big day for anniversaries! The museum first opened its doors on 16 June 1983 and the first Cinerama screening in Bradford took place a decade later on 16 June 1993.

The film was This is Cinerama, a 115-minute montage of scenes designed to showcase the potential of the format, which was nominated for an Academy Award in 1953.

In just over a month you can catch another three-strip presentation of This Is Cinerama alongside a projection room tour, where we will offer you a closer look at that famous technology!
