This year, Rhino Entertainment and Trafalgar Releasing present the Dead’s eponymous film THE GRATEFUL DEAD MOVIE. This fan-favorite cult classic follows the legendary band on what at the time was believed to be their final performances, a five-night run at San Francisco's Winterland Ballroom in October of 1974, the final night billed as “The Last One.” Featuring stellar live performances, mind-bending animation, interviews with band members and crew, the film has a rare focus on the band’s fans and their deep commitment to the Dead Head lifestyle. Be sure to stay till the end for the exclusive theatrical premier of “China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider,” a bonus live performance from the October ‘74 Winterland shows not included in the official film release.  New this year, in addition to traditional cinema, THE GRATEFUL DEAD MOVIE will grace IMAX® screens in select territories worldwide! This larger than life presentation has been remastered by IMAX for sound and picture for an immersive and powerful experience, making this a must-see event. David Lemieux, Grateful Dead archivist and legacy manager, said after experiencing the film in IMAX - “_It was the greatest screening I’ve ever experienced of a film I’ve seen hundreds of times._”  Details ------- Release Date: August 14, 2025 Rating: R Duration: 2hr 32min Directed By: Jerry Garcia, Leon Gast studio: Trafalgar Explore More ------------ ### Exclusive Art [![IMAX Exclusive Artwork - IMAX Presents: The Grateful Dead Movie 2025 Meet-Up](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fc4ucztjx9pmu%2Fkm9OOv4HIKOAX3DqJ1MdW%2F9c4765178cadfdf280c9d0f20c44f2bf%2FIMAX_Exclusive_Artwork_The_Grateful_Dead_Movie.jpeg&w=360&q=75)Download(opens in new window)](https://images.ctfassets.net/c4ucztjx9pmu/km9OOv4HIKOAX3DqJ1MdW/9c4765178cadfdf280c9d0f20c44f2bf/IMAX_Exclusive_Artwork_The_Grateful_Dead_Movie.jpeg) ### The Grateful Dead Movie X IMAX Exclusive Art Print [![The Grateful Dead x IMAX Exclusive Art Print ](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fc4ucztjx9pmu%2F2koSJfb947BCJOqqmsl4PQ%2F418caf6786afa04bfffa237dcb165574%2FPM1074_Marketing_Asset_1920x1080_Textless_V1.jpg&w=512&q=75)Shop Now(opens in new window)](https://store.imax.com/?activation=grateful_dead&utm_source=web&utm_medium=web&utm_content=sdp&utm_campaign=grateful_dead_merch) More In IMAX ------------ ### The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping FILMED FOR IMAX Coming Soon [![Haymitch (Joseph Zada) brandishes a short sword in 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' (2026).](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fc4ucztjx9pmu%2FZNB0BsjSQUThONu6NxrCd%2F4726f827139c2e44a10eed3be2c86baf%2Fsolstice-final-feature-grab-260807-00032rc.jpg&w=512&q=75)Advance IMAX Tickets](/movie/the-hunger-games-sunrise-on-the-reaping#showtimes) ### Dune: Part Three FILMED FOR IMAX Coming Soon [![Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) interrogates Princess Irulan (Florence Pugh) in 'Dune: Part Three' (2026).](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fc4ucztjx9pmu%2F3Ha7CgJrQhQFzwPLdahQHc%2F752cfe5e35beef82f34c7447acc5412f%2Frev-1-DUN3-T3-0001r_High_Res_JPEG.jpeg&w=512&q=75)Advance IMAX Tickets](/movie/dune-part-three#showtimes) ### Godzilla Minus Zero FILMED FOR IMAX Now Playing [![Godzilla emerges out of the ocean to attack an airplane in 'Godzilla Minus Zero' (2026).](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fc4ucztjx9pmu%2F4tAlHLITqrjflZ2Ti1qEVu%2F874bb86b7f256fa3d1bc1142c0ec338e%2FGMZ_Stills-Copyright_still-03-12K.jpg&w=512&q=75)Get IMAX Tickets](/movie/godzilla-minus-zero#showtimes) ### George Michael: The Faith Tour Coming Soon [![George Michael performs onstage.](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fc4ucztjx9pmu%2F5B6dtIhEgIAUmqyUPBUWO5%2F14e5a36fbf69ea8ffc997e57e85e8081%2FGEORGE_MICHAEL__THE_FAITH_TOUR_-_Still_1_Credit__Universal_Pictures_Content_Group_and_Crosswalk_-_Photographer_Credit_Micha.jpeg&w=512&q=75)Advance IMAX Tickets](/movie/george-michael#showtimes) ### Dune: Part One Reissue FILMED FOR IMAX Back In IMAX Coming Soon [![Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) greets the Emperor's Herald on Caladan in 'Dune' (2021).](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.ctfassets.net%2Fc4ucztjx9pmu%2Fldassset-fid-17891%2F965f5f4cfa6f2232d93b359427d05942%2FDune__1_.png&w=512&q=75)Advance IMAX Tickets](/movie/dune#showtimes) ### Dune: Part Two Reissue FILMED FOR IMAX Back In IMAX Coming Soon [![Timothee Chalamet as Paul Atreides in Warner Bros.
