Sony Pictures Entertainment, in partnership with Alamo Drafthouse, announced plans to restore and reopen Hollywood’s Cinerama Dome by early 2028, about six years after its COVID-era closure. The geodesic Dome will keep its Cinerama branding and exterior, and will feature its immersive 70mm-capable curved screen while not offering in-theater dining to preserve the traditional experience. The adjacent 14-screen ArcLight Hollywood complex is set to reopen under Alamo Drafthouse with dine-in services and curated programming. Restoration is scheduled to begin next month, with upgrades to formats including 35mm, 70mm, and 4K laser projection. The Dome is positioned as a West Coast flagship for Alamo Drafthouse and Sony, focusing on repertory screenings, premieres, and filmmaker series. Industry observers view the revival as a landmark restoration for a beloved Los Angeles venue that has been shuttered since 2020.
