Ripley's 4D Moving Theater Niagara Falls
Ripley's 4D Moving Theater in Niagara Falls, Ontario, is a fun addition to a visit to the spectacular waterfalls that give the town its name. Kids and adults alike will love the excitement of the 4D movies, which take viewers on a ride right into the action. Sit down, buckle up, and be prepared for a few shrieks and giggles.
The Basics
The films shown at Ripley’s 4D Moving Theater combine sight, sound, and movement, for a full sensory experience. The theater has state-of-the-art 6-channel digital surround sound. Strap yourself in tight, as you’re in for quite a ride. Enjoy two movies in a row, with a short intermission between them. The movies are for the whole family, so this is an ideal attraction for most ages, and it’s open until late at night, so you can visit whenever the urge strikes.
As Ripley’s 4D Moving Theater is part of the Ripley’s Believe It or Not! attraction, many visitors combine a trip with a visit to the Odditorium—which shows a variety of weird and wonderful exhibits—as well as Louis Tussaud’s Waxworks. Single-attraction or combined-entry tickets can be purchased. Many Niagara Falls day tours from Toronto include some free time, during which it’s possible to drop by Ripley’s 4D Moving Theater.
