Cinema

Escape into art and adventure

Leap into the action of the latest Hollywood releases or be transported to one of the world’s great theatres where live-streamed opera, ballet and musical performances come vividly to life on our big screen.
Our giant cinema screen 1 offers an immersive experience unique within our region with an 18 metre wide screen, state-of-the-art surround sound and raked seating for uninterrupted views. In July 23, we installed the latest 4K laser projector, which is 4 times more powerful, with 4 times more definition and 4 times better than an HD projector. It is 3 times brighter than our previous projector and uses a quarter of the energy, making it much kinder to our planet.

Plus, discover new special screenings, from Baby & Me, Relaxed, Captioned and Silver Screenings.
