We want to assure you that the safety and well-being of our customers and our staff is our top priority. We have effectively implemented social distancing into our booking systems, cinema bar, lounge, and auditoriums. Our usual high standard cleaning efforts have doubled and we have positioned multiple hand sanitiser stations across the cinema, not just on entry! We have also introduced table service in the café bar and lounge and will continue to bring your orders to your auditorium seat to avoid unnecessary queuing. We encourage pre-ordering food and drink online via our website when you purchase your tickets. And don’t forget like with all venues when you stand up mask up!

Rest assured you sit back, relax, and escape from the world with your family!
