Summer Olympics Events In Paris To Be Offered In AMC, IMAX Movie Theaters


An innovative use of theaters is planned for the Paris Olympics this summer.

“Sports fans like to cheer together, and during the last [Summer] Olympics, we noticed the watch parties across the United States that NBC showcased during their coverage,” Ryan Noonan, vice president of corporate communications at AMC Theatres, told Yahoo Entertainment. The Olympics opening ceremony on July 26 will be broadcast live at select IMAX theaters nationwide, kicking off at 1:30 p.m. Each ticket entitles its bearer to a block of time, with coverage anticipated to include basketball, swimming, volleyball, and track and field.
