Cinematic Luxury for Leicester
Leicester film fans are just weeks away from the launch of an exciting new concept in luxury cinema entertainment. US - based National Amusements, which owns the Showcase chain of cinemas, is delighted to be launching its brand new Showcase Cinema de Lux as part of the multi - million pound development of the Highcross shopping centre in Leicester.
Opening its doors to the public on 5th September 2008, the 12 screen facility will be Leicester’s first city- centre multiplex and offers cinemagoers much more than just a movie, combining the latest films and special programming with contemporary dining, impeccable service and a full range of distinctive amenities. National Amusements is transforming the movie-going experience with this unique concept, making their cinemas a community entertainment destination for everyone to enjoy.
The 11 standard auditoria will all feature wall-to-wall screens with the added luxury of custom designed, deep cushioned, rocking recliner seats arranged in a stadium style to ensure cinemagoers an unobstructed view of the screen.
For the ultimate in luxury, guests can enjoy the Directors Hall, a premium auditorium featuring Ultra Leather loveseats, reserved seating, and exclusive access to the Directors Lounge where guests can indulge in dinner and drinks before or after the movie. The Directors Lounge menu offers a wide variety of food from entrees to appetizers, speciality cocktails and a full service bar.
The cinema also features the Studio One restaurant and bar offering an internationally influenced menu, a full service bar, and special children’s menu. The comfortable surroundings of Studio One provide the perfect place for guests to enjoy dinner before or after a movie, catering to parties of all sizes.
Customer service is a fundamental part of the Cinema de Lux philosophy and the Elite Services team offers a concierge service - on hand to respond to virtually any guest need.
Cinema de Lux features the latest sound and projection technology including Dolby Digital Sound as well as full digital 3D projection capability in several auditoria. Guests can also take advantage of reserved seating throughout the complex via online booking and the ability to print tickets at home.
Set within the scheme’s main piazza, the multiplex is set to become the main entertainment attraction at Highcross and is only the second Cinema de Lux to open in the UK, following on from the launch at the Westfield Centre in Derby in May this year.
