    The phone numbers listed are for a recording of screen times. But its for week ending 7th march.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,950 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori


    I'll give both numbers a ring shortly.

    When I passed it yesterday there were no screen times up in the window which I thought was unusual. I normally walk past during a weekday when it's not open though.

    On the recording he says "Friday the 1st of March to Thursday the 7th of March"

    I reckon he meant to say April instead of March. An easy mistake to make with the change in month.

    Well I rang both numbers and both just gave film times. I tried to 'book' a movie to try and speak to someone but no-one answered.

    I know they where in a bit of trouble, money wise but didnt hear anything about it being closed

    Good news to hear that they'll be staying open. I hope to see many many movies there with the missus.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,606 ✭✭✭sgarvan


    They are advertising a job there so it mustn't be closing

    Can't believe the cinema is open nearly 5 years :eek:

    As a frequent visitor to the weekend kids club with my 3 year old, it would be a terrible loss to the community. Perhaps us boardsies could help out with a monthly film club? Mightn't be much, but it could help.

    Listings for Balbriggan Cinema are always on http://www.entertainment.ie

    Like someone else said we should all try to make a bit of effort to support it so it doesn't close.

    oh no sad to hear that


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,100 ✭✭✭Neil_Sedaka


    That's sad, my kids used it regularly :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,085 ✭✭✭wow sierra


    Went down there tonight all set to see Killing Bono:(.

    It's a real pity. I'm afraid I didn't go there very often but it is such a shame it is gone. If people are talking about new owners does it look like it might reopen? I hope it does.

    Another Irish business bites the dust - this recession is a pain in the ass. Sympathies to all the people who have lost their jobs. Hope things look up soon for ye.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,843 ✭✭✭Jimdagym

    walked past the cinema last night and the film info ticker said "Closed due to flooding, re-opening 20th April".

    Film selection had gone to the dogs recently. hopefully they get it all sorted and I can get back to binging on butter popcorn


  • Registered Users Posts: 255 ✭✭smokiebeverage


    Hi all I can confirm the cinema is reopening, just an issue with a bust pipe but its almost there! There is a new website which will keep you updated [url]HTTP://WWW.balbriggancinema.com[/url]. Fell free to drop any suggestions you have


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 11,667 Mod ✭✭✭✭RobFowl


    Good luck to the new owners.
    Always enjoyed it ans will make an effort to go more often...

    Fanta & coke in the machines instead of club orange. Machine fanta and butter popcorn is what makes life worth living.

    Allow customers to prebook seats. I cannot even begin to describe how annoying it is to have to arrive to a film up to 30 mins beforehand to start queueing so as to not end up in the front row.
