The BFI IMAX is one of the only IMAX cinemas in the world with the capacity to project IMAX films on 70mm, and it goes without saying that the 70mm screenings of Christopher Nolan’s take on Homer’s epic are something extra special!
Christopher Nolan held the world premiere of his latest masterpiece here at the BFI IMAX. The director has said that it was his own early experiences of watching films here that inspired him to pursue the use of IMAX cameras in all of his films.
As for the film itself, The Odyssey is truly epic in every sense of the word - and yes, watching it here on IMAX 70mm is exactly the way Christopher Nolan has intended it to be seen!
Throughout the summer, the BFI IMAX presented a record-breaking 180+ consecutive sold-out screenings of The Odyssey. Fans who missed out the first time around have another chance to see the film in the way Nolan intended - i.e in 70mm at BFI IMAX!
Quite simply, this is the film event of the year.

How to get to the BFI IMAX
Located inside the Waterloo Bridge traffic circle, the entrance to the BFI IMAX is not immediately obvious! The cinema is in fact accessed via several underpasses that are not immediately obvious at street level
The quickest, most convenient and direct underpass to reach the BFI IMAX is via the stairs at the corner of York Road and Concert Hall Approach Road.
How to get to BFI IMAX from Waterloo Tube station
Follow the signs underground for the South Bank and exit onto York Road. Look to your left and you will see the round BFI IMAX structure in the middle of the traffic circle. The stairs down into the IMAX on Concert Hall Approach are just after the railway arch.
How to get to BFI IMAX from Waterloo train station
If arriving in South Bank by train, get off at Waterloo Station and exit the station via The Victory Arch exit. Follow the road down out of the arch to the zebra crossing on York Road. You will see the BFI IMAX in the middle of the traffic circle to your right. Cross the zebra crossing and turn right and you will meet the stairs down to the IMAX on Concert Hall Approach Road.
