4 premium screens
Hong Kong
There are 4 premium screens in Hong Kong, IMAX. The biggest picture is at Hong Kong Space Museum — 623 m² of lit screen, 190% more than the next room.
One room — Hong Kong Space Museum — can show the full 1.43:1 IMAX frame. Everywhere else in town crops to 1.90, which is roughly a quarter less picture on a film shot for it.
Worth knowing before you book: UA Megabox & IMAX never lights 18% of its screen. The fabric is bigger than the picture, which is why the ranking here is by lit area rather than by the dimensions cinemas advertise.
One of these is a dome, scored on projected surface area — not a like-for-like comparison with a flat screen, and noted as such on the pages.
3 of 4 publish their dimensions; the rest are scored on an estimate and marked as such. No projector here is yet confirmed by two independent sources, so treat the scores as indicative.
Ranked
Scored on the picture each room actually lights, not the fabric it is painted on. A tilde means the projector rests on a single dated source.
