Sharp to support the Festival Cinéma Paradiso Louvre 2026 as technology partner

London/Munich, 30 June 2026Sharp Display Solutions Europe, the audio-visual technology business division of Sharp Europe, is proud to support the Festival Cinéma Paradiso, by providing cutting-edge cinema projection technology for its sixth edition. Held from 1-4 July 2026 in the iconic cour Carrée of the Louvre Museum in Paris, the festival will feature the Sharp NC-3543 RB laser projector to deliver a premium open-air cinematic experience under the stars.

The Festival Cinéma Paradiso Louvre invites over 10,000 guests to enjoy four nights of open-air screenings, live music, and gourmet food in a setting unlike any other. Co-produced by mk2 and the Musée du Louvre, the event is part of the broader “Les Étés du Louvre” summer series, which also includes concerts, shows, performances and cinema, from the cour Carrée to the Pyramid, via the Tuileries Garden.

Attendees will witness breathtaking visuals powered by the Sharp NC-3543 RB laser cinema projector, delivering native 4K resolution, vivid colour reproduction and exceptional contrast to help transform each screening into an immersive experience. The NC-3543 builds on the legacy of the projection technology previously used to support the festival in earlier editions.

"Cinéma Paradiso Louvre's mission is to inspire wonder through the power of cinema, and to reimagine the magic of cinema in a historic setting - bringing people together for shared moments of awe and emotion," says Elisha Karmitz, CEO of mk2. "Our collaboration with top-tier technology partners like Sharp is essential to achieving that vision."

"We’re delighted to continue our partnership with the Festival Cinéma Paradiso Louvre," adds Jens Kayser, Head of Cinema EMEA at Sharp Display Solutions Europe. "The unique location and atmosphere demand the highest image quality, and our RB laser projection technology is perfectly suited to deliver an outstanding visual experience for all attendees."
