Kinepolis began 2016 by taking over the operation
of the cinema situated in the Saint-Sever shopping
center in the heart of
Rouen
(Normandy).
Formerly run by UCG, the cinema has 14 screens
and 2 500 seats. It is the first Kinepolis cinema in
Normandy.
The ‘Mégaroyal’ cinema in
Bourgoin-Jallieu
, which
was acquired in 2015, was then converted to the
Kinepolis concept. Kinepolis Bourgoin-Jallieu
reopened its doors on 24 March 2016.
And, in France too, Kinepolis ended the year by
opening a new-build complex. The eight-screen,
1 100-seat
Kinepolis Fenouillet
is part of
‘La Galerie Espaces Fenouillet’, the new shopping
and recreation center in the north of Toulouse.
The complex in Fenouillet is the first in France to
be fully equipped with laser projectors, including a
Laser ULTRA room.
In the meantime, construction is ongoing of the
‘Les Promenades de Brétigny’ retail park
in
Brétigny-sur-Orge
, 35 kilometers south of Paris.
This new leisure and restaurant center will house
the first Kinepolis complex in the Île-de-France
region. The 10-screen, 1 530-seat complex is
expected to welcome around 500 000 visitors
annually. Immochan will rent a wind-tight building
with 6 500m² in floor space to Kinepolis. Kinepolis
will take care of all cinema interiors and finishing.
The cinema is scheduled to open in the third
quarter of 2018.
