Cineworld, the tallest cinema

Far from the small screens of the Grosvenor cinema stands the tallest cinema in Europe. Glasgow Renfield Street's Cineworld has 6 floors and 18 screens but despite the vast capacity of the cinema there is always a queue. There are 78 Cineworld cinemas to choose from containing hundreds of screenings with the ability to show many films. Smaller, independent cinemas may be the chosen destination if you are looking to escape from the clutches of a major corporation but for a cinema providing the new, overly advertised film, Cineworld fits the bill. With 6 times the amount of screens as the Grosvenor, it has the space to show a variety of films showing, along with Hollywood best sellers, Bollywood films and Operas. 


As chain cinemas go, Odeon cinemas have ticked the box of accessibility as there are more of them dotted around Glasgow and are easier to come across. Cineworld may only have two cinemas in Glasgow and it may be harder to get to, if you live on the outskirts of the city, but you will not be disappointed with the venue. The prices vary but are not too expensive with the dearest ticket being an adult at £6.90 with students, children and seniors getting discounted tickets. They also have many offers available for example the unlimited card proves very popular as it is a huge money saver if you are a regular attender. For £14.99 per month you receive unlimited access to films, worth the money if you attend the cinema at least three times a month. Orange Wednesday’s also bring in huge crowds with the queue outside the door to get the two for one deal.



So if you’re about Glasgow and looking for a cinema, Cineworld is highly recommended. If not only to check out your star crush in their new film or to escape from the strains of your everyday, stressful life, you will also have visited the tallest cinema in Europe.
