King Kong Is Here. And He's More Real Than Ever.

Anja Brydum
August, 2010

Want to come face-to-face with King Kong in the world’s largest, most intense 3-D experience?  Well, there’s only one place you can get your fix: Universal Studios Hollywood at the brand-new King Kong 360 3-D.  

The Attraction
King Kong 360 3-D combines the imagination of Peter Jackson with the latest in technology, creating a multi-sensory attraction that takes 3-D to the next level.

The Experience
Prepare to enter a darkened soundstage and be transported deep into a 3-D jungle on Skull Island.  If you can survive a close encounter with a swarm of hungry raptors and a vicious T-Rex, you’ll soon be up-close-and-personal to an enormous gorilla: Kong himself!

The Facts
King Kong 360 3-D features the world’s largest 3-D projection installation ever produced.  Two seamless, compound curved screens (each measuring a massive 187 feet wide by 40 feet high – the equivalent of 16 movie theatre screens) will surround the Studio Tour tram.  If the digital 3-D King Kong could leap off the screen, he would be astoundingly large: 30 feet tall, 20 feet wide, 15 feet deep, and 6,000 pounds.  Whereas the average film projects at 24 frames per second, King Kong 360 3-D’s 16 ultra-high definition projectors display 60 frames per second, creating an incredibly fluid sense of reality.  Now THAT’S the next level of 3-D technology.

Universal Studios Hollywood is located at 100 Universal City Plaza, Universal City.  For more info and to buy tickets, check out universalstudioshollywood.
