Melco Resorts & Entertainment has announced the cinema at its Studio City property in Macau, the first Dolby cinema in Macau and Hong Kong, will open June 26.
The Studio City Cinema is a part of the $1.2 billion Phase 2 development of Studio City, which also features two luxury hotel towers, a 10,000-square-meter water park, and 1,100 square meters of MICE space.
Melco says the 770-seat cineplex will comprise nine houses, including five VIP suites and a screening house with paired seating.
“The centerpiece is the Dolby Cinema, which combines the immersive sound of Dolby Atmos and the remarkable picture of Dolby Vision in a special theater designed by Dolby to deliver the most immersive experience possible,” said the operator in a press release. The other houses are equipped with RealLaser 4K projection, with three also supporting Dolby Atmos sound.
“The new movie theatre destination will complement Studio City’s collection of incredibly diverse and cosmopolitan contemporary leisure and lifestyle experiences,” said Kevin Benning, senior vice-president and property general manager of Studio City.
He added, “Melco will continue to contribute towards the city’s economic diversification initiatives and support the government in promoting Macau as the world center of tourism and leisure through the delivery of innovative and world-class entertainment and hospitality experiences.”
The announcement establishes June 26 as the official opening date of Studio City Cinema following Melco Resorts’ $1.2 billion Phase 2 expansion.
