The Megaplex: An AMC Original

AMC’s reputation for innovation can be seen in everything from the smaller details to groundbreaking ideas that transform the movie-exhibition industry—such as the megaplex.

In 1995, AMC introduced a new idea that transformed the moviegoing experience. AMC’s first megaplex premiered in Dallas, Texas with the opening of The Grand 24. With what was then the largest screen-count theatre in the U.S., this 24-auditorium complex was an instant hit. Since then, AMC has built more than 3,600 megaplex screens and offers megaplexes throughout the U.S. and the world—far more than any other exhibition company.

In an AMC megaplex environment, moviegoers receive the ultimate in selection and convenience. Moviegoers enjoy a wider selection of features and showtimes, as well as longer running dates. There’s always something for everybody – and it’s all under one roof.

An AMC megaplex is more than multiple screens – it’s the décor, amenities, and guest services that combine to make a trip to the movies a special event. AMC megaplexes are also known for their appealing, fresh designs, plush surroundings, and industry-leading picture and sound quality. AMC is always on the cutting edge of advances in sight and sound.

AMC tops it off with the company’s signature “fast and friendly” service. AMC theatres feature large concession and ticketing areas, numerous ticketing purchase options, and a courteous and attentive crew so guests spend less time waiting in lines—and more time enjoying their trip to the movies.
