VOX Cinemas Yas Mall IMAX

Abu Dhabi · United Arab EmiratesSingle source

PremiumCinemaIQ rates this IMAX room C, 41/100 — 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.

IMAX with Laser, 12-channel sound, 23.2m-wide floor-to-ceiling screen; reopened Dec 2025. Rebuild/laser upgrade of an existing IMAX hall rather than a new site.

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.
