Description

The BFI IMAX in Waterloo, London is one of the most popular single screen cinemas globally, frequently being one of the top grossing IMAX screens in the world and the BFI strives to give the best cinema experience to our guests.
As part of an upcoming auditorium refurbishment it is planned to replace all 498 of the current seats with new cinema seating.
The seating must be durable to cope with high intensity use and modular to give options to easily replace broken parts. The current installation has a mixture of standard, premium and double seats and the plan is to continue in this configuration. We also wish to retain the full 498 capacity of the screen.
The seats will need to be installed during a period of planned screen closure which is programmed to take place mid to late October 2022
