A cinema is set to undergo a major upgrade with luxury seating, new screens and a premium food offering.
The Omniplex on Renfrew Street in Glasgow, known as the world's tallest cinema, will reopen to the public on Friday, July 10, following the first phase of a £22 million redevelopment.
All 15 screens will be upgraded with fully reclining seats, sofa beds and double recliners, an Omniplex first.
Four OmniplexMAXX screens will be installed, delivering a premium large-format experience with laser projection, Dolby Atmos sound and more than 300 premium seats.
The cinema's Avenue concept, a luxury offering on the top floor, will open later in the year.
The first phase of the reopening will include the ground floor, retail area, and screens on levels one and two.
A special launch offer will see tickets priced at £4.95 from July 10 to 12, with the first 100 guests each day receiving a free XL popcorn.
Guests will also be able to enjoy Joe's Food Truck, serving 24-inch pizzas, fried chicken, burgers, drinks and cocktails from a shipping container on site.
The refreshed foyer and lounge areas will be finished in Omniplex's signature design and created for comfort.
The cinema relaunch is part of Omniplex's £60 million UK-wide investment plan, which has already delivered upgrades at locations including Sunderland, Wigan, Birmingham and Clydebank.
Omniplex Cinemas first opened in Ireland in 1991 and now operates 47 sites with a total of 392 screens.
Tickets for the new Omniplex Renfrew Street go on sale this weekend.
