ODEON to open at Cabot Circus

By Hannah Massoudi  Tuesday Nov 26, 2024

An ODEON cinema is due to open in Cabot Circus, replacing the Cinema De Lux that stood empty for a year.

The property owners Hammerson will be adding the new 53,000-square-foot venue next year.

Toby Tait, director of asset management at Hammerson, said: “Cabot Circus is proud of its record providing Bristol with a leading cinema which acts as a key draw to both our destination and the wider city centre.

“This new partnership with Odeon is the culmination of months of hard work to select the best operator and bring the latest technology and experience into a completely renewed cinema venue.

“It adds to our growing line-up of restaurants and entertainment venues, specifically introduced to boost day and night experiences at Cabot Circus in the heart of Bristol.”

One popular ODEON already sits on Union Street in Bristol’s shopping quarter and Hammerson had announced earlier this year that they were adding more stores to its Cabot Circus portfolio, including King Pins Bowl which will open its 16,500 sq ft venue featuring bowling, gaming and leisure activities next year.

Meanwhile, Treetop Golf is opening this December to deliver a new and immersive golf experience. Popular gastronomical concept, Six by Nico, will soon be opening at Cabot Circus as well as Honi Poke, which chose Cabot Circus as one of its first sites outside London

The previous owners of Cinema De Lux citied challenges with agreeing a new lease with the building landlords.
