## About Muvico Theaters

Muvico Theaters was a premium megaplex movie theater chain founded in 1984 and based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

The company was known for its architecturally themed entertainment destinations that offered immersive movie experiences. Muvico emphasized unique designs, such as Egyptian and Mediterranean motifs, along with modern amenities like stadium seating, advanced sound systems, and expanded concession options. At its peak, Muvico operated 152 screens across nine locations in Florida, California, and Illinois, attracting guests with its focus on superior service and customer satisfaction. The company pioneered the megaplex concept in 1995, creating entertainment complexes that integrated movies with a broader experience. In 2013, Muvico was acquired by Carmike Cinemas, and later, specific locations transitioned to AMC properties following a merger in 2016. The Muvico brand name was repurposed in 2024 as part of AMC's financial restructuring.
