Filmstaden Bergakungen - Salong 1 Nordic chains - flagship halls, no in-house PLF brand

Gothenburg · SwedenSingle source

PremiumCinemaIQ rates this Nordic chains - flagship halls, no in-house PLF brand room C, 33/100 — a modest premium screen, 136 m² of lit picture. The projector rests on a dated source, so the score is indicative. Data read 21 September 2026.

Sweden's FOURTH largest screen at 18m x 8m per Swedish Wikipedia - behind Filmstaden Scandinavia, Royal in Malmo and Biostaden in Uddevalla. The honest counterweight to the idea that Nordic chains run a PLF: this is a big conventional hall with no format brand. The complex has 14 screens; Salong 2 was converted to IMAX with Laser (214 seats), Gothenburg's first.

The projector here comes from a 2021 industry listing that we haven't been able to re-confirm. IMAX has converted a lot of screens to laser since — where we could check, 100 venues listed as xenon had been upgraded. Treat the score as indicative.
