    The ODEON cinema in Harrogate announces it will reopen on 16 July but customers can buy tickets online from today.

    ODEON has announced its Harrogate cinema will reopen on 16 July with tickets going on sale online today.

    Customers can expect to buy tickets for classic films such as 1914, Empire Strikes Back and The Greatest Showman. New releases will begin by the end of July.

    The new 'ODEON safer experience' will be a little different to what film-lovers are used to. It will be a contactless experience with the usual boxes of popcorn being replaced by pre-packaged options. The new grab and go range will also limit customers to bottled drinks.

    Family groups and social bubbles will be allowed to sit next together, but between separate customers there will be an unoccupied seat. Staggered show times will also limit the chance of long queues.

    Staff will be trained on the new safety measures and equipped with masks and gloves.

    • Hotel staff are being re-trained to make sure everywhere is covid secure for the planned reopening on 4 July. 





    Carol Welch, Managing Director for UK and Ireland, said:

    "We are excited to confirm that from 4 July, our UK cinemas will begin reopening. We've carefully planned every step of our guest journey and put safety measures in place to provide a controlled and safer cinema experience.
    "New measures include social distancing in our auditoriums and foyers, additional cleaning regimes, and a request to book tickets online prior to arrival."
