4DX offers an unmatched cinematic experience that fully immerses audiences into the action on screen. Utilizing over 21 unique effects—including motion-synchronized seats, water, wind, snow, lightning and scents—4DX engages all five senses, transforming a traditional movie into a thrilling, multisensory adventure. 4DX amplifies the impact of every scene with effects that perfectly sync to the on-screen action, giving viewers an extraordinary way to experience films like never before.

The Castle Hill and Innaloo locations will feature 124 and 128 seats, respectively, ensuring ample capacity for audiences to experience the multisensory thrills that 4DX has to offer. These additions mark a significant growth milestone, bringing the total number of 4DX theatres with Event Cinemas in Australia to seven.

“We are delighted to continue our collaboration with CJ 4DPLEX to expand the 4DX experience across our cinema locations,” said Daniel McCabe, General Manager of Cinema Operations Australia for Event Cinemas. “At Event Cinemas, we are committed to offering our customers the latest and greatest in cinema technology, and with the addition of these new 4DX theaters, we’re bringing an unparalleled level of excitement and immersion to even more moviegoers across Australia.”

Jun Bang, CEO, CJ 4DPLEX, added, “4DX offers Australian audiences a cinema experience that simply can’t be replicated at home. The combination of motion-synchronized seating and environmental effects transports audiences directly into the heart of the action—something only the big screen can deliver.

“Our growing partnership with EVT’s Event Cinemas allows us to deliver the groundbreaking 4DX experience to more Australian moviegoers, transforming the way audiences connect with their favorite films,” stated Don Savant, Chief Business Officer, CJ 4DPLEX. “This expansion reflects our commitment to providing dynamic film experiences worldwide, and we’re thrilled to see Australian audiences embrace the power of 4DX.”

CJ 4DPLEX and EVT have been pioneering cinematic advancements in Australia since the launch of the first 4DX theater in 2018. As demand for premium film formats grows, this expanded footprint signals both companies’ dedication to meeting the needs of a rapidly evolving entertainment landscape.

In addition to the 4DX locations, Event Cinemas has two ScreenX theaters in Australia, CJ 4DPLEX’s cutting-edge premium experience. The ScreenX format lets moviegoers experience key scenes from each film in a stunning, 270-degree panoramic view that is displayed across dual-sided screens. This creates all-encompassing visuals like never before and provides the most differentiated and premium moviegoing experience available.
