Verkatehdas – a cinema experience for six senses
When you go to the movies, you move to another world for a while. BioRex's largest PRIME theatre at Verkatehdas (Baize Factory), Hämeenlinna, takes spectators to supreme comfort of cinematic pleasure. Sculptural multidimensional bronze pillars glittering with light create a festive ambiance. The spacious theatre has 210 extra-wide seats. They offer plenty of private space to delve into the cinematic experience.
The large, luminous screen brings 4K laser-projected movie experience palpably near in the Dolby Atmos multichannel sound environment.
Verkatehdas has now five theatres, a spacious, silver-bronze lobby and atmospheric passageways. The delicatessen has been designed to let you take away popcorns and soft drinks handily and quickly. From the lobby glittering with bronze of the delicatessen, you pass on to the movie theatres along a royal blue passageway filled with stars.
PRIME - A FIRST-CLASS MOVIE EXPERIENCE
Night at the Movies
The intimate fifth theatre was also fully reshaped in the cinema. 49 persons can enjoy a cinematic experience there at a time. Comfortable blue seats and footstools in the front row promise a movie evening for six senses. All theatres of Verkatehdas now have 4K laser technology, and stools at the railings add comfort.
