Cinema in Maynooth

I was in Naas about 3 weeks ago, I've never seen a cinema go down hill so fast it was horrible.

C3 or C4 bus from Maynooth.

Stop for Liffey Valley is on N4, you’ll need to go over the pedestrian bridge then.

Id agree, i go to Blanch or Liffey Valley. With over 50K people between Celbridge,Leixlip and Maynooth and the M4 im surprised we dont have one in the area as there's not another option along the M4 until Mullingar

The owner's of Base were refused a cinema a good few years ago, as the council/ decision makers wanted one nearer the Main Street in Celbridge.!!!

There was also a proposal put in for a gym and pool facing the Applegreen where the new estate is going in Celbridge, but that was refused too, to protect the vista of Castle Town.

No issues getting these things done in Naas or Athy as you have mentioned.

I'd question if Leixlip is bigger anymore, census area figures aren't out yet but it was close enough last time.

KCC planning want to leave it to the college to provide a cinema, as they intend to do as a partial commercial venture. Nice idea but it's been nearly a decade since that was proposed

Census area figures are out, Maynooth now has about 2k more than Leixlip. Celbridge when you remember to include Donaghcumper is about 5k ahead of Maynooth still.

I'd expect Celbridge to leap on a fair bit by 2026, as will Maynooth; and Leixlip to grow much slower due to the physical constraints and county boundary.
