Cinema
Leap into the action of the latest Hollywood releases or be transported to one of the world’s great theatres where live-streamed opera, ballet and musical performances come vividly to life on their big screen.
Our giant cinema screen 1 offers an immersive experience unique within our region with an 18 metre wide screen, state-of-the-art surround sound and raked seating for uninterrupted views. In July 23, the latest 4K laser projector was installed into Screen 1, which is 4 times more powerful, with 4 times more definition and 4 times better than an HD projector. It is 3 times brighter than the previous projector and uses a quarter of the energy, making it much kinder to our planet. See the Rheged website for full cinema schedule.
Enjoy the show with sweet treats from our Deli including Kimi’s Gelato, Karma Soda and hand-packed confectionery range from Bon Bon’s.
Our Cinema also hosts talks and special events, with guest speakers, exclusive screenings, Q&A’s and panel debates taking place regularly, plus pantomimes too.
