VMAX Arrives at EVENT Cinemas Queensgate

Movie-goers rejoice! – EVENT Cinemas’ big screen experience VMAX has arrived at Queensgate completing the final stage of the multiplex’s redevelopment to become the largest and most cutting-edge cinema offering in the region.

In addition to VMAX, a further two original cinemas have opened at EVENT Cinemas Queensgate which now boasts seven cinema screens with multiple experiences all under one roof, including IMAX with Laser.

The opening of VMAX follows hot on the heels of IMAX with Laser, which opened at Queensgate in December with Avatar: The Way of Water, New Zealand’s biggest box office success and the fourth highest grossing movie worldwide.

EVENT Cinemas General Manager for Entertainment New Zealand, Carmen Switzer said: “Wellington and Lower Hutt locals have been flocking back to the cinema and shown us such incredible support since our first phase reopening in December. We are so proud that EVENT Cinemas Queensgate was the number one performing cinema in the country for Avatar: The Way of Water which is truly remarkable given it had just opened its doors.

“Guest feedback has been outstanding, for the entire Queensgate multiplex which includes an expansive PLAY entertainment arcade, Candy Bar and Café in the grand foyer,” concluded Carmen.
