Kinepolis Brussels Laser ULTRA by Kinepolis

Brussels · BelgiumEstimated

PremiumCinemaIQ rates this Laser ULTRA by Kinepolis 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 1988 as the first and biggest megaplex in the world: 25 auditoria, 6,454 seats per Kinepolis' own site info (English Wikipedia cites 7,600 - figures differ by source and era). Its largest room is the IMAX 70mm hall with a 532 sq m screen and 400 seats. One of the four Dec 2014 Laser ULTRA launch sites. Screen dimensions for both the IMAX hall and the largest conventional auditorium are unpublished.

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.

Laser ULTRA by KinepolisNamed projector and sound, no minimum size. Barco 4K laser and Atmos, retrofitted into each site's largest room. No published minimum size.

* 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.
