Imperial Bio Heritage single-screen picture palaces
Copenhagen · DenmarkEstimated
PremiumCinemaIQ rates this Heritage single-screen picture palaces (reference category) room C, 35/100 — a modest premium screen, with no published dimensions, so the size score rests on an estimate. The projector rests on a dated source, so the score is indicative. Data read 21 September 2026.
Opened Nov 1961, Ved Vesterport 4. Scandinavia's largest single cinema auditorium and the largest single screen in Northern Europe by seat count (sources vary 996-1,002). Renovated Aug 2013 with a new 142 sq m screen and Dolby Atmos; Nordisk Film markets it as 'the world's largest Dolby Atmos cinema'. Screen AREA is published but width/height are not, so both are null - do not back-derive them.
Map position approximate (city centre)
Respectable, but not the full IMAX proposition.

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.
Why IQ 35
* This venue has never published its screen dimensions. Size is scored on a deliberately conservative estimate, so an unmeasured screen can't out-rank a measured one on guesswork.
