Landmark Cinemas 24 Kanata

The AMC Kanata 24 is located in the Kanata Entertainment Centrum, an entertainment, restaurant and retail development just off Highway 417 at the Terry Fox Drive exit in Kanta, ON, Canada.

This megaplex opened on September 3, 1999. It is a multi-screen theatre featuring wall-to-wall screens, stadium-style seating in plush, high-backed LoveSeats™ with retractable armrests and AMC’s signature cupholders, and other special amenities.

Megaplex technology includes AMC’s proprietary High Impact Theatre System (HITS), which combines wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling screens with full digital sound systems featuring Sony Dynamic Digital Sound™ (SDDS™).

The AMC Kanata 24 includes 24 auditoriums with a total of 4,764 LoveSeat-style seats. The concession stand features classic North American theatre fare such as hot dogs, nachos, candy and, of course, hot, buttered popcorn and soft drinks. From 2012, it has been operated by Empire Theatres, and in 2013 was taken over by Landmark.

At the time of the writing, this theatre has since been taken over by Landmark Cinemas in 2013 (it was supposed to go to Cineplex, but was moved instead). It should be also called Landmark Cinemas 24 Kanata.
