Antrim · United KingdomSingle source

PremiumCinemaIQ rates this Omniplex MAXX 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.

23m wide - Ireland's widest cinema screen per Wikipedia, and wider than every UK IMAX except Cineworld Leicester Square (26.5m), Vue Manchester Printworks (26.3m), the BFI IMAX (25.9m) and Cineworld Belfast (25m). A clear case of a chain PLF out-sizing most local IMAX screens. Dolby Atmos, MasterImage 3D, 5% curved screen. Height and coordinates not published. Northern Ireland, hence GB country code.

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.

* 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.
