About sambio.is

Sambíó operates cinemas in Iceland that show current films, including Icelandic-dubbed releases, animated and family titles, and live broadcasts of the Metropolitan Opera from New York. Showtimes and age ratings are published for each film.

The cinemas serve moviegoers across Iceland, including families with children. The company sells cinema tickets through its own cinemas and website.

The origins of the business date to 1941, when Eyjólfur Ásberg founded a cinema in Keflavík. Bíóhöllin at Álfabakka in Reykjavík opened in 1982, and the company says it was the first cinema in the Nordic countries with a THX sound system. Other cinemas are in Kringlan (opened 1996), Egilshöll in Grafarvogur (opened 2010) and Akureyri. The company currently runs five cinemas.

Product: Cinema screenings of films, including Icelandic-dubbed releases and Metropolitan Opera live broadcasts, in five cinemas in Iceland.
