Digital cinema solutions provider GDC Technology announced it has been selected to supply the world’s largest cinema LED screen for installation at CINEMAGNUM, the flagship auditorium of Nürnberg, Germany’s Cinecittà multiplex.
Measuring 30 meters wide by 16 meters high, the screen will claim the title of the world’s largest LED cinema display upon its completion in fall 2026. The installation marks a significant milestone for both GDC and the European cinema industry.
The installation features cutting-edge Tricorne Premium LED technology, delivering:
- 8K+ native resolution – ensuring breathtaking clarity and detail, even on a 30-meter-wide canvas
- A signature curved screen – engineered to optimize viewing angles and immersion across the entire auditorium
- A wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling footprint – eliminating visual boundaries for a fully engulfing experience
- Micro-perforated, acoustically transparent LED panels – allowing cinema-grade audio to pass directly through the screen without compromising visual density or HDR performance
“Perfect sound-from-picture synchronization and a wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling canvas have always been the holy grail of LED cinema,” said Man Nang Chong, GDC Technology’s founder and CEO. “Tricorne Premium LED’s proprietary micro-perforated technology finally achieves both – delivering a fully immersive visual experience without sacrificing a single decibel of audio fidelity. At CINEMAGNUM, audiences will experience HDR visuals and immersive sound in perfect harmony.”
The CINEMAGNUM installation represents more than just a size record; it signals a broader industry shift toward LED-based exhibition as the new standard for premium large-format (PLF) experiences. Unlike traditional projection systems, LED offers HDR (“High Dynamic Range”) images with superior brightness, contrast, and color accuracy—even in ambient-light conditions.
“This investment in the world’s largest cinema LED display—featuring unprecedented image resolution exceeding 8K—reflects our unwavering commitment to cinematic innovation,” said Mr. Weber, founder and president of CINECITTA’. “We are proud to partner with GDC Technology and ECCO Cine Supply & Service to deliver this extraordinary HDR visual and auditory experience to European audiences, embarking on a new era for motion picture exhibition.”
Beyond the CINEMAGNUM installation, GDC Technology and ECCO Cine Supply and Service GmbH, a leading cinema integrator in Germany, have formalized an exclusive reseller agreement for Tricorne Premium LED across the German speaking market. Within just six months of the debut of Tricorne Premium LED, installations and confirmed orders have already reached 25 units worldwide – including deployments at leading PLF venues.
“ECCO has been Europe’s pioneering service provider for installing and maintaining cinema LED since 2021,” said Thomas Rüttgers, founder of ECCO Cine Supply and Service. “When I first saw HDR cinema LED with micro-perforation that met Hollywood’s DCI Direct View HDR standard, I knew instantly that it would mark a decisive step forward in the history of cinema. With our many years of experience in the industry, the possibilities are endless – and we are proud to partner with GDC Technology in bringing this new generation of cinema to life.”
