There are over a hundred cinemas in the Netherlands, in addition to 79 small arthouse cinemas and a number of adult movie theaters. The main cinema chains in the Netherlands are Pathé, Vue and Kinepolis.
Pathé Theatres B.V. is part of the Pathé Cinémas chain, which in turn is part of Pathé. Pathé Theatres B.V. operates the following cinemas (most multiplex) in the Netherlands:
The largest theaters are Pathé de Munt in the center of Amsterdam (13 screens), Pathé Arena in Amsterdam-Zuidoost (14 screens), and Pathé de Kuip in Rotterdam (14 screens). A Wolff theater with 18 screens will arise in Utrecht, at the Jaarbeurs-side (westside) of Utrecht Centraal railway station. Using Wolff's definition of a megaplex theater, one having 16 or more screens, it will be the first one in the Netherlands.
