Vue has signed terms with Barco to bring its award-winning laser projectors across Vue\u2019s European estate. The roll-out of Barco\u2019s technology to screens across all eight countries in Vue\u2019s portfolio reiterates the company\u2019s commitment and continued investment, bringing the best big screen experience to its moviegoers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The deal will see an initial installation of more than 1,000 Barco Series 4 projectors and Barco media servers introduced to Vue\u2019s screens by the end of 2029, starting the roll out in the UK, Germany and Denmark. Vue Southport in the North West of England was the first of Vue\u2019s cinemas to undergo installation and Vue Westfield Shepherd\u2019s Bush in London, the company\u2019s flagship site, will be next in line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vue’s focus remains on continuing to build and develop the business by innovating and investing in its estate and technology to deliver the ultimate big screen experience. Vue recently unveiled a UK first, \u201cVue Your Way\u201d, piloting a new take on the cinema foyer experience for customers. It offers the opportunity for customers to explore the full range of food and drink, at their own pace, as well as eliminating or significantly reducing queuing at peak times. Vue has also been transforming existing and newly acquired Vue sites, including Southport and Swindon in the UK, and rolling out the recently launched Ultra Lux seating, Vue\u2019s most comfortable, spacious and luxurious recliner seating to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commenting on the deal, Tim Richards CBE, the chief executive officer and founder of Vue, said, \u201cWe are delighted to be partnering with Barco to deliver more than 1000 incredible laser projectors across eight countries. Barco\u2019s state-of-the-art laser technology perfectly complements our investments in Lux and Ultra Lux recliner seats as well as the recently unveiled Vue Your Way, our innovative new take on foyers. These exciting developments will ensure we continue to provide the ultimate big screen experience to our customers and are perfectly positioned for the opportunities that lie ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBarco shares Vue\u2019s commitment to delivering new and exciting cinema experiences,\u201d said Gerwin Damberg, the executive vice president of Barco Cinema. \u201cTogether, we look forward to bringing Laser by Barco to Vue\u2019s theaters throughout Europe. With laser projection, audiences will enjoy the next generation of movie presentation with stunning picture quality, high image brightness and increased color gamut.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
