The evening will see footage of the band’s live performance on the rooftop of Apple Corps’ Savile Row headquarters on January 30, 1969 featured alongside a Q&A with filmmaker Peter Jackson.
To celebrate the anniversary of the landmark performance, select IMAX® theaters will host the screenings with a filmmaker Q&A and give away exclusive mini-posters; the Q&A will be broadcast via satellite simultaneously to all connected IMAX locations.
“I’m thrilled that the rooftop concert from ‘The Beatles: Get Back’ is going to be experienced in IMAX, on that huge screen,” says Jackson. “It’s The Beatles’ last concert, and it’s the absolute perfect way to see and hear it.”
The concert will be optimized for IMAX screens, digitally remastered into the image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience® with proprietary IMAX DMR® (Digital Remastering) technology.
Tickets for the Exclusive IMAX Event Screening and Filmmaker Q&A on January 30, 2022, are currently on sale at tickets.imax.com.
A global theatrical engagement of the 60-minute feature, “The Beatles: Get Back–The Rooftop Concert,” will then run February 11-13.
The complete docuseries, “The Beatles: Get Back”, will also be available on Blu-ray and DVD in the U.S. on February 8.
