“From the moment you enter the venue, you will see and feel the difference,” says Paul Glantz, Co-Founder and Chairman of Emagine Entertainment, Inc., the Michigan owned and operated company that will open the new Emagine Palladium theatre to the public on Friday, October 2. The remodeled theater promises patrons a unique, upscale, and luxurious movie going experience. The theater, along with accompanying restaurant, the Ironwood Grill, occupies the top floor of the former Palladium Theatre. The new theater is located at 250 North Old Woodward in Birmingham, and will be the premiere movie and dining theater in southeastern Michigan.

“Emagine Palladium has been meticulously designed,” according to Glantz, “to provide features and amenities that will raise the bar for out-of-home entertainment in Michigan. This theatre is going to reinvent the movie-going experience for guests by offering platinum memberships with priority seating and numerous amenities, a full service bar, and in-theatre dining like you have never seen before. All guests will be treated to an evening of great food, great drinks and great movies in an incredibly comfortable and intimate environment.”

Emagine Entertainment has completely converted this former theatre from a typical movie theatre with 2,500 seats on 12 screens to an incredible viewing experience featuring 5 screens with large custom designed recliner chairs and each with a limited seating capacity of 540 seats. With limited seating, this theatre has created the newest concept in movie going: Platinum Memberships. While tickets will be available to non-members, four hours before show times, Platinum Members will have priority access to tickets, dining reservations, and special events. These Members will also enjoy “member pricing” on tickets and our gourmet concession stand.
