The 50th anniversary of IMAGINE is being celebrated with synchronised screenings of John & Yoko's IMAGINE film worldwide. In 2018, the film was cleaned up, restored and remastered in pristine HD and the sound remixed in Stereo, 5.1 Surround and Dolby Atmos, all under Yoko's supervision.

The film has been The Prince Albert is hosting one of these screening and we’d love you to join us. Silent disco headphones will be available to totally immerse yourself in the experience.

The 65 minute film was directed by John & Yoko in 1971 to accompany the soundtrack of John's IMAGINE album, with a few tracks from Yoko's FLY album - all filmed at their house Tittenhurst in Ascot, in London, and also in New York. One of the first major feature-length longform music videos.

With everyone starting exactly 7:30pm UK time on 9th September, the screenings will be accompanied by a Tim Burgess (Charlatans UK) Tim's Twitter Listening Party - where many of the original musicians from the album and participants in the film will watch along at the same time and comment on Twitter, including Yoko Ono, Alan White and Klaus Voormann; the Estates of John Lennon, George Harrison and Nicky Hopkins; filmmakers Nic Knowland and Doug Ibold and many more - providing more context and a richer experience to enhance the music and the film. We hope all of you will be tweeting along too, and joining in the Experience.

We are very happy to collaborate with Music Venue Trust and Music Venues Alliance in bringing this event to you.
