The Paragon 1981 Venue Pop 16 Ounce Popcorn Machine is the largest and highest-output model in the Venue Pop line, delivering up to 295 one-ounce servings per hour for demanding commercial environments. This classic design draws its inspiration from the iconic popcorn machines found at 1980s sports arenas and stadiums, instantly evoking memories of grabbing a bag of fresh popcorn at basketball games, football stadiums and other sporting events. The nostalgic styling makes it a natural fit and an eye-catching centerpiece at concession stands, movie theaters, school events, community venues and anywhere crowds gather for entertainment. With a 16 oz kettle, each full batch cooks in just three to five minutes using a high-output, hard-coat anodized aluminum kettle that delivers even heating for consistent results. The side-hinged kettle tips easily to unload freshly popped corn and makes cleaning simple between batches. One of the standout advantages of this machine is that despite its high-capacity output, it operates on a standard 15 amp circuit with a NEMA 5-15P plug. This means it does not require a dedicated electrical circuit, making it ideal for schools, churches, recreation centers and other environments where the machine may need to move between rooms or locations. Built from strong steel and aluminum construction, these poppers are designed for long-term commercial use with easily removable parts for simple maintenance and cleaning. A stainless steel food zone provides safe food contact surfaces, while tempered glass panels offer durability and crystal clear visibility of your freshly popped corn from every angle. The built-in aerated warming deck keeps large batches of popcorn warm and fresh from the bottom up, while the slide-out old maid drawer catches unpopped kernels and smaller bits for fast, easy cleanup. A presentation lamp illuminates the cabinet to showcase your product and attract customers. This machine is UL, CSA, CE and NSF certified, meeting the food safety and electrical standards required for commercial food service operations. It measures 27.25 inches wide by 19.25 inches deep by 36.5 inches high with a shipping weight of 109 lbs. A plastic popcorn scoop is included and the machine is backed by a one-year warranty.
