Guests will be able to enjoy the new, fully-reclining cinema with 652 new handmade luxury recliner seats across nine screens. Film fans can also experience a new state-of-the-art ISENSE screen with 4K projection and Dolby ATMOS sound, as well as a range of food & drink options – to see the latest entertainment in style.

ODEON – the UK & Ireland’s leading cinema chain – has announced it will be setting the pace of luxury cinema experience for British film fans for years to come, by bringing Europe’s first ODEON Luxe cinema to The Hub, EK.

The cinema will become fully-reclining, with ODEON unveiling 652 luxurious handmade leather reclining seats across nine upgraded screens, with increased leg room and personal space for guests, as well as retractable tray tables and a host of new food and drink options to ensure ultimate comfort.

Cinema goers will also experience an overhaul of the technology in the cinema to deliver an outstanding viewing experience. The cinema will now boast a state-of-the-art, 104-seat ISENSE screen with 4K projection and cutting-edge Dolby ATMOS sound delivered by 51 brand new speakers, providing a truly immersive, ultra-high-definition cinema experience.

Film fans can enjoy breath-taking sound delivered by 185 new speakers across all auditoriums, with all standard screens now packing Dolby 7.1 Surround Sound and improved picture quality through enlarged screens throughout.

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.

Guests of the cinema can now choose from a range of food including freshly-popped popcorn, nachos, fries and hot dogs, as well as drink options including a Coke Freestyle machine with over 100 different flavours to enjoy, self-service Tango Ice Blast machines and a new Oscar’s drinks point serving a selection of alcoholic beverages.

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.

“We couldn’t be more excited to be the first cinema in Europe to offer the ODEON Luxe experience,” said Robert Murphy, General Manager at ODEON East Kilbride. “With huge investment from the business, our team have been working hard, redeveloping the cinema to create the ultimate venue for film fans in Scotland. With half the seats, but triple the legroom – and a jam-packed release schedule of the biggest and best films in the coming months – we can’t wait to welcome film fans through our doors to enjoy them in fantastic luxury and comfort.”
