A CHAIN has revealed when Barrow's cinema is due to reopen its doors.
Vue had originally planned to open its venues on July 10 but has pushed back a phased reopening to July 31.
The chain said it had taken lessons from the successful reopening of its cinemas in several European countries.
A spokesman said: for Vue, which has a cinema in Hollywood Retail Park, said: “Having taken comprehensive steps to safeguard our staff and customers, Vue is ready to welcome back customers to its UK cinemas.
“We know from successfully re-opening cinemas across Europe – including some 70 sites in Germany, Denmark, Holland, Lithuania, Poland and Italy – that audiences after lockdown are itching to enjoy the big screen experience again, with the added reassurance of rigorous new operating protocols and appropriate physical distancing.
“Under this revised plan, we will begin a phased reopening of our cinemas in the UK from July 31."
