Overview
Emagine Palladium is a luxury movie theater located in Birmingham, Michigan, United States. It is one of the locations operated by Emagine Entertainment, a regional cinema chain whose affiliates own and operate luxury theaters across Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. According to the company's official website, Emagine operates 27 theaters with a combined 30,068 seats and 342 screens, and it has been recognized as an innovator in the theatrical exhibition industry. Emagine Entertainment led the way in bringing luxury theaters to the metropolitan Detroit market and has been named "Best Movie Theater" for several years running by the Detroit Free Press, the Detroit News, and WDIV television. It has also been named "Best Theater to See a First Run Movie" by Hour Detroit Magazine consecutively for the past 9 years. In 2022, Emagine was ranked as the 9th largest theatre chain in North America according to the Giants of Exhibition report from Boxoffice Pro. The chain has a history of technological firsts: it was the first theater chain in the world to convert to 100% digital projection, the first to introduce 4K projection to the Detroit market, and it boasted 3 of the first 100 Dolby Atmos immersive sound systems deployed worldwide. In 1997, Cinema Hollywood (now Emagine Birch Run) was the first theater in Michigan to open with all stadium seating. On December 15, 2017, Emagine began operating the largest movie screen in the State of Michigan with the opening of its Super EMX auditorium at its megaplex in Novi, Michigan; and on December 19, 2019, Emagine opened the largest CinemaScope screen in the Midwest at its Emagine Canton/Westland location. In 2021, Emagine launched live music events and the Emagine Sports Lounge, the first of its kind. In 2022, Emagine partnered with Caesars Sportsbook to rebrand the sports lounge. As part of the Emagine Entertainment circuit, Emagine Palladium offers first-run movies, luxury amenities, and premium large-format experiences. The theater serves the Birmingham, Michigan community and the greater Detroit area, contributing to Emagine's reputation as a leading luxury cinema brand in the Midwest.
