【文心秀泰影城】 Wenxin Showtimes Futuristic Dolby Atmos Experience Taichung

If you find yourself in Taichung and have a passion for cinema paired with unique movie experiences, Wenxin Showtimes Live is a must-visit. 

This mall has a HUGE selection of restaurants, snacks, desserts, and shopping options. Additionally, it features two distinct movie theaters: an immersive Dolby Atmos theater and a more intimate Tempur theater, which screens films every couple of hours.

In this guide, I’ll describe the Dolby Atmos experience: what it’s like to be inside, where it’s located, how to purchase tickets, the seats, snacks and refreshments, the experience, and some extra tips along the way! Let’s get started!



stepping inside

Movie Theater Lobby at Wenxin SHOWTIME - Luxury Entertainment

When entering Wenxin Showtimes theater, head towards the elevators and go to the 7th floor.

When I first stepped out, my first reaction was definitely, “wow.”

The theater exuded opulence with its spacious layout adorned with cute white chandeliers. There’s even massage chairs to relax!


purchasing movie tickets

Getting the tickets is simple. You can choose to book online for convenience or pick a showtime at the counter if you're feeling spontaneous.

If you decide to go to a movie without planning, you can check out the mall below that goes from the first floor to the sixth. There, you can enjoy different places to eat, snacks, and shops while you wait for your movie time!


snacks + refreshment

Popcorn at Wenxin SHOWTIME LIVE - Taichung Cinema Snacks

And of course, every movie theater provides snacks!

My top recommendation is the caramel popcorn! A bit salty, a bit sweet.

If you can’t finish your popcorn, they have a trash bin for your leftover popcorn that you can throw into for compost!


Dolby Atmos seats

Comfortable Movie Theater Chairs at Wenxin SHOWTIME - Seating Experience

Super spacious, with very clean seats, and with a ton of legroom so you won’t have to worry about kicking the person in front of you.

Say goodbye to the uncomfortable seats and constant shifting around!


audiovisual experience

Dolby Atmos Movie Theater in Taichung - SHOWTIME LIVE Experience

The audiovisual experience was INCREDIBLE.

As the screen dims, the speakers transports it’s sound back and forth, creating a futuristic and immersive prelude. The audio quality was crisp and dynamic.

The visuals was equally impressive, with SHOWTIME proudly flaunting the largest screen in Taichung — standing at 15 meters high and 22 meters wide.

This 4K projection masterpiece guarantees a visual feast for your eyes promising to elevate your movie experience to new heights.


the stylish bathroom

Luxurious Japanese Bathroom at SHOWTIME LIVE - Taichung Cinema

Last but not least, I love a bathroom appreciation — but their bathrooms are so nice.

Japanese TOTO heated bidets — a little warmth for your toosh, an elevated stand for your bags and modern sink.

There’s even cute chairs on the side for you if you’re waiting for your friends at the bathroom!
