Experience Top Gun like never before with this special 40th Anniversary IMAX presentation of the legendary 1986 blockbuster. Directed by Tony Scott and produced by Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer, Top Gun rocketed Tom Cruise to global superstardom as Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, a fearless naval aviator competing at the elite Fighter Weapons School. Co-starring Val Kilmer, Kelly McGillis, Anthony Edwards and Meg Ryan, the film became the highest-grossing movie of 1986, earning more than $350 million worldwide and running in some cinemas for over a year. Famous for its stunning real-jet aerial photography using F-14 Tomcats, unforgettable lines like "I feel the need, the need for speed!", and a soundtrack packed with hits including the Academy Award-winning Take My Breath Away and Kenny Loggins' Danger Zone, the film quickly became one of the defining movies of the 1980s.

Seeing Top Gun in Lancashire's only IMAX takes the experience to another level. The giant screen, crystal-clear projection and powerful immersive sound place you right in the cockpit as Maverick and Goose push their skills - and their fighter jets - to the limit. Tony Scott's groundbreaking aerial sequences were shot using real aircraft, real pilots and cameras mounted inside the cockpits, creating an intensity and authenticity that still feels breathtaking 40 years later. The film's cultural impact is undeniable: it influenced fashion, music, aviation recruitment and the modern action blockbuster, while paving the way for the record-breaking sequel Top Gun: Maverick. This anniversary screening is your chance to feel the speed, the rivalry and the adrenaline exactly as it was meant to be experienced - bigger, louder and more thrilling than ever in IMAX.
