Utilizing some of the world’s finest manufacturers and installers of digital theater equipment and technology each Lightyear theater is a stunning venue and yet remains one of the most competitively priced and technically reliable in the marketplace.

Whether you are looking for a custom built venue, a world class media room or a retrofit to an existing facility, Lightyear can make a theater of any size a true “Theater of the Future” with astounding capabilities.

Whatever or wherever your venue, digitizing brings with it increased revenue streams and open sourced programming opportunities.  All theaters can benefit from the versatility of digital options with lower operating costs and higher profit margins.

Digital theaters can easily “share the stage” with live performing arts facilities and offers these theaters the versatility of digital exhibition and the benefit of healthy alternative sources of income.  Whether a small community 50-seat theatre or a thriving suburban 2,000-seat performing arts center, having a dual purpose venue opens the door to a vast spectrum of “show’ options and greatly increased ”box office” revenues.

Lightyear theaters offer communities across North America a new center of attraction with unlimited options of programming.  The theater once again becomes an integral part of any community with exhibition content encompassing entertainment, education, information, interactivity, arts and culture.  Digital theaters in some communities may well qualify for substantial government grants, concessions or assistance.

The versatility of a digital theater permits the exhibitor to “customize” the programming to suit the local audience.  The list of content is endless…..independent films, Broadway shows, major sporting events, educational content, business conferences, live video games, cultural events…..and so it continues.   Digital delivery also brings the capability of the Internet to the “big screen” and opens the door to incredible profits.  A digital theater is instantly responsive to changes in programming and format, switching from high-definition to 3D takes seconds.

The Lightyear team can offer its services as a complete end-to-end solution provider.  Whatever your venue you can be assured that a Lightyear theater “serves the future of motion pictures”, is easy to upgrade and is designed to be state-of-the-industry for a very long time.
