ODEON Greenwich IMAX
London · United KingdomPublished figures
PremiumCinemaIQ rates this IMAX room D, 46/100 — a small room carrying a premium badge — it fails the large-format premise on size, whatever the projector, 117 m² of lit picture. The projector rests on a dated source, so the score is indicative. Data read 21 September 2026.
One of Europe's first two digital IMAX screens (2009, Bugsby's Way); its Screen 9 IMAX (15.1m x 7.76m) was upgraded to IMAX with Laser XT in 2025.
IMAX in name. Weigh it against the surcharge.

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.
⚠ LIEMAX — at 15.1m wide this is in the smallest tenth of IMAX screens worldwide (the median is 20 m), showing a 1.90 frame. Good projection can't buy back screen size.

Sources disagree
The 2021 industry listing records this venue as xenon; we publish laseron the strength of a more recent source. IMAX has converted a great many screens to laser since that listing closed, so the newer record usually wins — but you should know the two don't match.
The projector here rests on a single source. It is the weakest field we hold across the network.
