On behalf <strong>of</strong><br />
Tivoli, we<br />
would like to<br />
congratulate<br />
all the honored<br />
companies<br />
on this year’s<br />
LARRY LIN<br />
<strong>Giants</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Exhibition</strong><br />
list! Your ability to elevate the<br />
moviegoing experience while ensuring<br />
patron safety is second to none.<br />
As the trusted brand for theater<br />
safety lighting, Tivoli will continue to<br />
innovate and focus on the customer<br />
experience while providing peace <strong>of</strong><br />
mind for both patrons and exhibitors<br />
across the board. Our TivoBAR with<br />
dual circuit capabilities and Eclipse<br />
Wall’s glare-reduction baffle system<br />
have managed to resolve long-standing<br />
challenges without compromising<br />
performance or design. We have no<br />
doubt that both Tivoli and the honored<br />
exhibitors on this year’s <strong>Giants</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Exhibition</strong> list will continue to<br />
shape the landscape <strong>of</strong> the theater<br />
experience for years to come.<br />

›› Acquired by the U.K.’s Cineworld circuit in 2018, Regal Cinemas<br />
continued to pursue initiatives adopted by its giant parent company.<br />
In July 2019, Regal embraced the in-house subscription trend with the debut<br />
<strong>of</strong> its “Unlimited” <strong>of</strong>fering. Sharing a name with Cineworld’s subscription<br />
plan, Regal’s <strong>of</strong>fer was customized for the U.S. market. The plan is available<br />
in three tiers: Unlimited, priced at $18/month and available at 200 locations;<br />
Unlimited Plus at $21/month and available at 400 locations; and Unlimited<br />
All Access at $23.50/month, which is honored at over 550 locations nationwide.<br />
Additional surcharges apply to premium auditoriums like RPX (Regal’s<br />
private-label PLF), Imax, 4DX motion and effects seating, and ScreenX<br />
panoramic screens. There is no cap on the number <strong>of</strong> standard-format movies<br />
customers can attend each month, nor blackout dates for new releases. The<br />
plan also includes a 10 percent discount on all concessions and nonalcoholic<br />
beverages. Regal previously had a partnership with Atom Tickets.<br />
This past year, Regal also opened eight new 4DX screens and six new<br />
ScreenX screens from technology provider CJ 4DPLEX. “The feedback we are<br />
receiving from moviegoers has been enormously positive, and as the only major<br />
exhibition partner where movie fans can enjoy these immersive experiences, we<br />
look forward to rapidly growing the number <strong>of</strong> 4DX and ScreenX locations at<br />
Regal in the years to come,” said Regal chief marketing <strong>of</strong>ficer Ken Thewes.<br />
