AMC Theatres Launches Shared Live Concert Streaming Partnership With Arena One

After self-distributing Taylor Swift’s “Eras Tour” concert film to great box office success, AMC Theatres is rolling out a different kind of music experience to its cinemas via a partnership with recently launched entertainment company Arena One that will bring livestreamed, interactive concerts to the big screen.

Instead of livestreaming concerts from arena tours, AMC will stream performances by artists from Arena One’s specially designed stage to hundreds of its locations in North America as well as Odeon locations in Europe. Arena One says its technology will connect performers and audiences across theaters nationwide “with crowd buzz, sound, and reactions flowing back and forth between the fans and performers in real time through innovative interactive technology.”

“We built a cinematic stage optimized to translate seamlessly to cinemas, but artists are defining what it becomes,” said Arena One CEO Peter Hamilton. “They’re not adapting tours; they’re building something new. That’s when a medium sparks reinvention.”
