First, sit back and check out the scenery and stars of this beautiful, family-friendly film.



Set against a backdrop of dramatic snowy peaks and glacial crags, Penguins 3D follows a brave king penguin on the journey of a lifetime. Watch our waddling hero dodge brawling elephant seals and hungry leopard seals in an effort to find his mate amid this colony of half a million penguins. Together they battle the elements to raise a chick in one of the wildest places on Earth. Watch this breathtaking, endearing and ultimately triumphant quest unfold on the largest screen in New England at the Simons IMAX Theatre.


Penguins 3D is a presentation of nWave Pictures Distribution and Serengeti Entertainment. Written and narrated by David Attenborough, the film is produced by Anthony Geffen and Sias Wilson and features cinematography by Simon Niblett and original music by James Edward Barker.   

Soak in the scenery of a sub-Antarctic wilderness. Watch stunning king penguins, with their stark orange bills and patches of vibrant feathers, navigate a crowded beach and go to extraordinary lengths to feed their chicks. And see how our fluffy brown chick grows up before your eyes. 

The Aquarium will be premiering this spectacular film this week, with our opening day splash on May 24.
