The opening date of a new northeast cinema has been announced.
Peterhead’s Arc Cinema will open its doors to moviegoers on October 2 this year.
Initially, I planned to welcome the public around Christmas last year, and in March this year at the former Gala Bingo site on Marischal Street.
However, the allocation of 2 million pounds had been delayed due to unforeseen delays in the program and the pandemic.
A on the social media of the cinema said: “We are very happy to be able to announce despite all our new opening date.
“We’re just putting the finishing touches on the videos and making sure you’re in a position to have a fantastic time.”
At the end of the year, Hollywood director Jon S Baird praised the development progress.
He said: “Once opened, it will be a great attraction for the city, which will have a domino effect.”

There is also a 280-seat air-conditioned theater, 422 luxury leather armchairs, 3-d virtual laser projection and Dolby Digital 7.1 surround sound, Fidelio’s formula for the hearing impaired.
In October 2019, the Aberdeenshire City Council’s Infrastructure Services Committee agreed to deepen to make the allocation of 2 million pounds a reality.
Melcorpo has earned a seasoning of 200,000 euros from the authority’s real estate investment fund, which is used to commission empty buildings in the region.
The bingo gala corridor was closed in January 2018 and the free box structure began.
