The Daily PollPoll: Are you looking forward to going to the cinema again?
Pre-booking will be essential and there’ll be reduced seating capacity.
SOME OF IRELAND’S major cinema chains are reopening over the next few weeks from tomorrow.

Odeon Cinemas are reopening from 13 July with the IFI and Lighthouse Cinemas in Dublin planning for a 20 July reopening.
