SCOTLAND’S LARGEST ODEON LUXE CINEMA TO LAUNCH IN GLASGOW: ODEON GLASGOW QUAY TO RELAUNCH AS FULLY RECLINING ODEON LUXE CINEMA

1 November 2017

ODEON – the UK & Ireland’s leading cinema chain – has today announced it will be launching Scotland’s largest ODEON Luxe cinema in the city of Glasgow, with ODEON Glasgow Quay fully launching as an ODEON Luxe on 15th November.

Following the launch of ODEON Luxe East Kilbride and ODEON Luxe Edinburgh West last month, the addition of ODEON Luxe Glasgow Quay means Scotland will be home to three of the four first ODEON Luxe cinemas in Europe, setting the pace of luxury cinema experience for UK film fans.

The cinema will become fully-reclining, with 937 handmade reclining seats across 12 upgraded screens, offering film fans triple the legroom and increased personal space and comfort, as well as individual retractable tables to ensure the ultimate cinema experience.

Film fans at the new ODEON Luxe Glasgow Quay can also enjoy a complete overhaul of the technology, including a brand new, cutting-edge 139-seat iSense screen, delivering a truly immersive, ultra-high-definition cinema experience, with 4K projection and Dolby ATMOS sound.

Cinemagoers will also experience breathtaking sound delivered by 186 brand new speakers across all auditoriums, with all standard screens packing Dolby Surround 7.1 sound and improved picture quality through enlarged screens throughout the cinema. A new in-screen lighting system will also help minimise distractions between guests, and any guests who are hard of hearing can also take advantage of a new Dolby Fidelio Audio Description system and Hearing-Impaired loops across all screens.

The upgrades to the cinema come ready for an exciting release schedule of new films, including the upcoming family film Paddington 2 (10th November), superhero epic Justice League (17th November) and the highly anticipated Star Wars: The Last Jedi (14th December).

Guests of the cinema can choose from an extensive range of food and drink options, including sweet and salted popcorn, hot dogs, nachos, Ben & Jerry's ice cream, a range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and freshly brewed coffee served in the stylish on-site Costa Coffee café.

The cinema’s retail area will undergo further refurbishment in 2018, bringing with it a Coca Cola Freestyle machine with over 100 different flavours to enjoy, along with an all-new Oscar’s Bar, which will offer guests a wide selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, set in a modern seating and bar area.

In addition to the range of retail options, guests can also enjoy a range of promotions and discounted screenings including ODEON Kids, ODEON Newbies, ODEON Silver Cinema & ODEON Screen Unseen – as well as being able to take advantage of ODEON’s Limitless cards and ODEON Première Club loyalty scheme.
