The venue will feature:
- A seven-screen multiplex
- The largest cinema screen in the world, exceeding 130 feet in width
- Full integration of **Dolby Laboratories Dolby Vision® projection and Dolby Atmos® sound in every auditorium
This marks the first multiplex globally where every screen delivers both Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos—creating an immersive, premium viewing experience designed to draw audiences back again and again.
Beyond Movies: A Full-Spectrum Entertainment Hub
While cinema anchors the experience, the Family Entertainment Center extends far beyond the screen.
Visitors can expect:
- Bowling lanes for social gatherings
- Arcade gaming zones
