Cineworld has announced that it will be opening Ireland’s first 4DX cinema screen in Dublin on Thursday, April 26th.
The cinema screen is set to include state-of-the-art motion seats and special effects that aim to stimulate all five senses while enjoying the big screen.
A number of scents and elements such as snow, lightning, wind and fog will be released throughout the film to further immerse the audience in the action on screen.
Speaking about the announcement, Cineworld Dublin General Manager, Richard Barnes said:
"We can't wait to see customers' reactions when they experience 4DX with us at Cineworld Dublin - we're sure Irish audiences will be thrilled by 4DX.
"There's nothing else like it in cinemas and it's only available at Cineworld. UK film fans have absolutely loved it so far and I'm pleased to reveal that upcoming blockbuster from Marvel, Avengers: Infinity War, will be the first film available to see in 4DX at Cineworld Dublin"
The 4DX screen will consist of 152 seats accompanied by a curved screen that is estimated to be larger than a double-decker bus.
Cineworld will debut the new cinema screen with the highly anticipated screening of Marvel’s ‘Avengers Infinity War’, which stars Irish actor Tom Vaughan-Lawlor.
Other blockbusters such as ‘Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’ and ‘Deadpool 2’ have also been confirmed for the 4DX screen.
Having first been introduced internationally in 2008, over 1 million people have experienced the 4DX technology worldwide across 450 movies. Audiences were treated most recently to box-office hits ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ & ‘Black Panther’.
