List of IMAX venues

This is a list of IMAX venues which feature either 15/70 mm film projectors or IMAX with Laser projectors.

Not included are IMAX venues with solely 2K digital xenon projectors.

Traditional 15/70 mm IMAX locations use 70 mm film projectors, with the film running through the projector(s) horizontally, each frame being 15 perforations wide. 3D presentations are shown using two projectors and either linear polarized or LCD shutter glasses. These locations are capable of displaying aspect ratios as tall as 1.43:1.

IMAX with Laser locations use two 4K resolution digital projectors with laser light sources, with 3D content using wavelength multiplex visualization in a similar fashion to Dolby 3D. They are capable of displaying aspect ratios as tall as 1.43:1.

All cinemas feature 3D projection unless noted otherwise.
