Atlas9 Immersive ’90s Movie-Theater Experience Opens in Kansas City, Kansas

Built by Dimensional Innovations, the venue transforms a retro cinema into a multi-room, tech-enabled narrative attraction with live performance.

Overview

  • Recent coverage diverges on timing, with trade outlets reporting Atlas9 is now open and a local report citing a Sept. 25 public launch.
  • Set inside a fictional 1990s multiplex, the 46,000-square-foot site features a 1940s-style jazz club and speakeasy, a 240-seat projection-mapped auditorium, a classic arcade and a pizza parlor.
  • RFID-based wearables power personalized interactions as operator Swell Spark and performance collective Quixotic deliver rotating programs and special live shows.
  • The project is a joint venture between Dimensional Innovations and Homefield, with Perspective Architecture + Design, DI Build and Superior Bowen among key partners.
  • Tickets are listed at $40 for adults and $30 for children at 1100 N. 98th St. in KCK, with posted hours Tuesday–Sunday and discounts for Wyandotte County residents and select workers.
