The below information explores how screens and theatres are split. There are three cinema chains in Australia that together account for more than 1,100 screens or just over half the national total. These chains are Event Cinemas (encompassing Greater Union and Birch Carroll & Coyle), Hoyts and Village. Other chains include Reading, Palace and Wallis Theatres. Independents account for around a third of screens.
