“Developing countries such as India are at the forefront of initiatives undertaken by cinema hall owners to increase movie screens to accommodate growing audience numbers. In India, more than 1,000 movies churn out every year, with nearly 4 billion tickets sold annually. However, the country lags behind in terms of the number of screens per million viewers when compared to China and the US,” said Soumya Mutsuddi, Technavio’s lead industry analyst for media and entertainment research.

Market overview of leading countries contributing to the growth of the global theatre management systems market:

  • US
  • UK & Germany
  • Australia
  • Others

US: largest contributor of the global theatre management systems market

During 2015, the Americas contributed the highest revenue share of around 41% in the global market. The popularity of Hollywood movies, which has led to the highest number of digital screens in this region is aiding its market growth. However, the report highlights that the region is expected to witness a decline in its market share during the forecast period due to market saturation.

As of 2015, the US had more than 120 screens per million viewers. The US is a developed market for movie screenings and its demands are not restricted to managing crowds and taking care of logistics involving the screening of a particular play or a movie. It also involves managing seating arrangements, allotment of seats as preferred by the audiences, and tracking the filling of seats (both offline and online). This necessitates the implementation of an efficient system that helps administer and manage these tasks with minimal human intervention. Because of these reasons, it is anticipated that the growing adoption of advanced theatre management systems in the US will drive a trend for developing countries to follow during the forecast period.

European countries such as UK and Germany emerge as big contributors to the theatre management systems market

The UK was the second-highest revenue contributing country for the global theatre management systems market. Nearly 90% of theatre owners in the country have transitioned from single screens to multiplexes. As a result, the theatre management systems (TMS) market in the UK is nearing saturation.

Germany followed the UK in terms of the revenue contribution to the global TMS market. This share is expected to grow during the forecast period due to increased spending on cinema by its population. However, slow recovery from the 2008 global economic downturn remains the biggest challenge for the country.

Australia and others

Australia emerged as the fourth-highest contributor of the global TMS market. The increase in the number of movie theatres and the transition of single or dual-screen theatres to multiplex theatres are the reasons for its growing revenue. Australia’s revenue share is expected to increase during the forecast period.

Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Japan account for 3%-5% of the global market revenue.
