Hucknall cinema reaches half a million visitors milestone
The Arc Cinema in Hucknall has celebrated a huge milestone by reaching more than half a million cinema admissions since opening its doors.
The impressive figure came to light following the cinema’s summer review, marking a major achievement for the High Street venue as it recently celebrated its sixth birthday.
It has been a particularly busy summer for the cinema, with audiences flocking to see some of the year’s biggest blockbusters, which helped the cinema reach the milestone.
The achievement also specical given the Arc opened just before the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic, with its early years affected by restrictions and social distancing.
Kelly Golding, cinema manager, said: “We were absolutely delighted to discover that we’ve reached 500,000 admissions.
"It’s such a fantastic milestone for the cinema and something the whole team can be really proud of.
"When you think about everything the cinema has experienced since opening, from Covid and social distancing to the incredible support we’ve had from our customers, it makes this achievement even more special.
“We’re so grateful to everyone who has chosen Hucknall as their place to watch films over the last six years.
"We’re really excited for what’s coming up this autumn and winter, with huge releases including Dune: Part Three, Avengers: Doomsday and The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping.
"It’s set to be a very busy few months, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back through our doors.”
And for those looking to make the most of their next cinema trip, the cinema’s September Saver offer is now live with tickets available from £5 all day Friday and before 4pm on Saturdays and Sundays.
