Sydney Swans take on fire-breathing dragons for Redkite kids

It was the Swans versus the Dragons at IMAX yesterday, when charity Redkite held a special event for children and their families in Darling Harbour. Players from the Sydney Swans gave everyone a treat by signing pictures and footies before donning their 3D glasses for a screening of the smash IMAX hit of the holidays, "How To Train Your Dragon 3D".

Providing real support to children, young people and their families through cancer has remained Redkite's single focus for over 25 years. Currently there are approximately 5000 families affected by childhood and adolescent cancer in Australia. Redkite is there with real and practical support for the whole family from the moment of diagnosis, throughout treatment and when families return home to the community. Children and young people from all major cities, regional areas and remote locations across Australia are supported by Redkite. Redkite receives no government funding and relies entirely on the generosity of the community to provide these important services.

It's Hiccup the dragon slayer at IMAX this Easter.

From the studio that brought you Shrek comes How to Train Your Dragon, a delightful adventure comedy, screening in spectacular IMAX 3D.

Set in the mythical world of Vikings and dragons, and based on the book by Cressida Cowell, the action comedy tells the story of Hiccup, a Viking teenager who does not exactly fit in with his tribe's longstanding tradition of heroic dragon slayers. Hiccup’s world is turned upside down when he encounters a dragon that challenges him to see the world from an entirely different point of view.

Think Events - Think Big - Think IMAX

When it comes to events big or small, IMAX in Darling Harbour is guaranteed to make an impact. The Theatre recently held the Australian premiere for The Alps, featuring a cocktail party on the mezzanine foyer before a guest presentation in the auditorium by mountain climber John Harlin.

New caterers to IMAX, European Catering, tailored a Swiss menu for the occasion - the film being set in Switzerland of course! - and added a tiered centrepiece to display their very festive Swiss salads in martini glasses and delicious Lindt choc mousse desserts.
