Construction underway on state-of-the-art, Disney-style theater

The Shops at Mauna Lani, the Kohala Coast’s premier lifestyle shopping destination, today announced its plans to open the first-ever 4-D theater in Hawaii.

Construction has already begun on the state-of-the-art attraction, dubbed “The Great 4-D Movie Ride,” which is slated to open in November.

The 24-seat theater will show 4-D features and simulated “rides” on a 19-foot widescreen projected from twin, high-definition digital projectors. The on-screen action is synchronized with full-range motion seats, a 2500W 5.1 DTS surround sound system and in-theater “4-D” effects, such as blown air and water spray, for a complete multi-sensory experience.

The Shops at Mauna Lani is the premier destination on the Kohala Coast for live island music, world-class shopping and fine dining. Restaurants include Tommy Bahama’s Tropical Café, Ruth’s Chris Steak House and Kenichi Pacific. The Shops is also home to Hawaii’s most distinct art galleries, including Peter Lik Gallery, Third Dimension Gallery and Lahaina Galleries, as well as popular merchants such as Marble Slab Creamery and Foodland Farms gourmet market.
