Kortrijk – December 8, 2020 – AMC Saudi Arabia expands its 4K presence in the KSA with four new locations powered by laser projection from Cinionic, the Barco, CGS, and ALPD cinema joint venture. Since entering the KSA two years ago, the circuit operated by AMC has grown to 40 screens, with more on the way later this year. From the start, AMC KSA has trusted Cinionic’s leading portfolio of 4K laser cinema solutions to power its theaters throughout Saudi Arabia. 

The recent AMC KSA locations, including Hafr Al Batin 8Riyadh Gallery 9Al Khair 9, and the newly opened Azizia Plaza 3 in Riyadh, more than double the circuit’s footprint in the region.
