Dolby 3D
A $3 surcharge is applied to the ticket price of all tickets for Bendigo Cinemas Digital 3D sessions. For example: Adult ticket - $14.00 3D surcharge - $3.00 Total - $17.00
The surcharge is to cover the extra costs in screening 3D films as well as the costs of the superior quality 3D glasses Bendigo Cinemas offers and the costs of cleaning and maintaining them.
Our usual Concession and Seniors discounts still apply with a $3 surcharge added. There is no Super Tuesday discount pricing for 3D. No complimentary passes of any kind will be accepted for 3D sessions unless otherwise stated. Carer and companion comps will only be accepted when accompanying a paid admission.
You get cool glasses and a unique movie experience! 3D works by presenting viewers with a slightly separated set of images for the left and the right eye in such quick succession that our brain perceives the images as appearing at the same time and having a field of depth. The glasses ensure that the right eye only see the images intended for right eye and the same for the left eye.
You will be able to use your Bendigo Cinemas, Village or Greater Union gift vouchers, screen savers or movie dollar vouchers for 3D movies but a $3 surcharge will apply. Bendigo Cinemas DO NOT accept Village gift cards.
Unfortunately, unlike traditional cinema tickets, digital 3D tickets cannot be refunded once the film has begun.
Our 3D glasses are designed to fit easily and comfortably on any guests that are over 3 years old. We do not recommend children under 3 attend digital 3D films for this reason as they will not be able to experience the full impact of digital 3D without the glasses. A child under 3 attending a 3D film must pay the $3 surcharge.
Of course! Our 3D glasses are designed to fit comfortably over prescription glasses.
No. Your 3D glasses need to be returned to cinema staff or placed in the pink bins provided on your way out of the cinema. Bendigo Cinemas supply quality non disposable glasses that are safely sanitised between each session for the best 3D experience.
Bendigo Cinemas will screen a 2D version of some 3D movies depending on availability.

Dolby technologies put you in the center of your movie-going experience. You will hear five full-range discreet channels, plus a subwoofer channel that covers the bottom one-tenth of the audible range - these are the technologies that create the experience. The dynamic range (the ratio of the loudest sounds to the softest) is significant and the full-range surround channels make lifelike special effects possible-think helicopters flying overhead. And the subwoofer sound can often be felt as well as heard.
