Last updated: December 30, 2022
This is an attempt at compiling a list of theatres outside of the US which are capable of presenting 5-perf 70mm films. For the purposes of this list, special-venue theatres are not considered--only regular, theatrical venues and screening rooms.
These theatres have been submitted since the spring of 1997. Some theatres may have closed or been stripped of their 70mm capability since then.
If you have new theatres to submit or updates to the theatres listed here, please send mail to snorwood@redballoon.net. Thanks.
