Tall Cinema Screen

Ground Floor | Level 1 | Level 2

A cinema-sized screen positioned vertically, facing the central staircase, plays one of four short films at 40-minute intervals throughout museum opening hours - creating a break from the traditional museum experience.

Featuring exclusive commissioned films

  • Kupe - dramatic big screen footage of Wellington's coastline as the route of Kupe's ancient journey is traced.

  • Tall Ships - tall ships and sailing vessels are celebrated complete with historic footage of the Peking's voyage around Cape Horn

  • Wellington 1900

  • Mountains to Sea

Visible throughout the museum, lights will dim signifying the start of a film and visitors may move to viewing platforms or continue through the Museum.
