Operator

⚠ Still trading, but no longer an IMAX venue. Operating as the 'Lozier Giant Screen Theater' with Christie 4K 3D digital and live showtimes; no IMAX branding.

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, so a 2021 label is a 2021 state rather than a current one. Treat the score as indicative.
