Operator

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.

Where this comes from

Single source

We treat a figure as confirmed only when two independent sources agree.

Screen dimensions: single source
Projector: single source
Operating status: verified open

Measurements disagree

We publish 24.8 × 18.1 m. Another source states 27 × 22 m. We have not established which is right, so the figure above stands and this note stays until something settles it.

The projector here rests on a single source. It is the weakest field we hold across the network.
