south of the Grand Canyon National Park entrance in Grand Canyon, Arizona.
Grand Canyon IMAX Movie Discovery & Adventure is presented in our air-conditioned Grand Canyon IMAX theater located within the National Geographic Visitors Center at the
Grand Canyon's South Rim in Arizona. The movie is projected on our screen that is 6 stories high and 82 feet wide. This visual delight is enhanced by sensory 6-track
Dolby® stereo surround sound. Plush seating is available for 487 guests plus access for 8 wheelchairs.
n only 34 minutes, viewers will discover a Grand Canyon that would take a lifetime to experience. This IMAX movie opens with the beginning of man's fragile kinship with the
twisting 277 mile Grand Canyon in Arizona, then moves the audience through time with brief glimpses at the stone pages of human history. From the mysterious Anasazi who
inhabited the Canyon 4,000 years ago, viewers at The National Geographic Visitor Center will travel through Grand Canyon history to join Major John Wesley Powell as he
challenges the unexplored Canyon and raging Colorado River in 1869.
The Grand Canyon IMAX schedule has shows beginning hourly at half-past the hour (34 minute film presentation) 365 days per year.

The National Geographic Visitor Center is host to an "official" Arizona Office of Tourism. Stop inside and talk to our
local representatives who can offer information and advice for travel in and around the Grand Canyon based on
extensive knowledge of the area. Our representatives are locals who have lived here for a time and have experienced all that the Grand Canyon and its surrounding area have to offer.
Official Park Passes on Sale To kick-start your Grand Canyon adventure in Arizona, get your passes before you enter the park. A special entry lane
then allows vehicles to circumvent the heavy traffic lanes and to enter the Park with virtually no delay. There is no
additional fee for using the Visitors Center Pay Station.
