The large-scale spatial experiential exhibition event ``Galaxy Express 999 The Galaxy Experience: That Journey Still Continuing'', which is based on the 1979 animated movie ``Galaxy Express 999'' based on the original work by Leiji Matsumoto, will be held from April 25th to October 26th at the Grand Gallery on the 1st floor of the Kadokawa Musashino Museum in Tokorozawa Sakura Town, Saitama.
Large-scale spatial experiential exhibition event "Galaxy Express 999 The Galaxy Experience: That journey is still continuing." Visual
"Galaxy Express 999 The Galaxy Experience: That journey is still continuing." is a new attempt to "extend" movies into space rather than "screening" them. The main venue, the approximately 1,000 square meter Grand Gallery, has been completely renovated with video and sound systems for this exhibition. A system centered on the latest 4K laser projector and 8.1CH surround will be used to represent the galaxy on the largest scale in Japan, using walls, floors, and the entire space, allowing you to enjoy an immersive experience in the story of the movie, including the farewell to your mother, Maetel, the Mechanical Count, the encounter with Captain Harlock, and the final scene.
Furthermore, a full-sized Galaxy Railway vehicle is also on display, where you can climb aboard and take a commemorative photo. At the entrance to the venue, a digest video showing why Tetsuro set out on his journey was shown, and the audience was further immersed in the world of the work, such as passing through the vestibule space leading to the space station and stepping into the starting station of the journey, ``Galaxy Station.'' After experiencing the main content, dialogue from the movie version will be displayed in a 25m corridor with railroad tracks in the center. Beyond the corridor, there will also be a corner introducing the production process of the exhibition event and movie setting materials.
Tickets are 2,700 yen for adults, 2,200 yen for junior high and high school students, 1,500 yen for elementary school students, and free for preschoolers. Please check the official event website for details such as closing dates.
