Digital Cinema is a technology which was introduced in recent years, whereby the traditional 35mm film is replaced by an electronic copy contained on a storage device. This technology has spread quickly throughout the cinema industry. The advantage of having a digital cinema is the pixel-perfect image and superior quality of sound. In addition, 3D images in digital format are better, faster, and more reliable to run. Grand Cinemas was the first cinema chain to introduce digital technology in the region and to digitise all its projectors.

In order to include our movie schedule in newspapers, we are required to submit the movie listings three days in advance of release, and even earlier when there is a public holiday. Should the schedule change in the interim, newspapers will not accept amendments after submission. In addition, on some occasions there are misprints from the publication’s side. To confirm show timings, please check the updated schedules on our website, GC mobile application, at the box office of the cinema you wish to visit or on our social media platforms.

All movie information, including new releases and schedules, are updated every Wednesday evening of each week. Theses schedules will reflect the show times from Thursday to the following Wednesday of the week.

If you're thinking of those red-and-blue coloured glasses, it's completely different. Because RealD is a digital technology, the two images (right eye and left eye) can be perfectly calibrated, creating an ultra-realistic image that doesn't give you headaches or eyestrain.

Right now it isn't possible to have a great 3D movie experience without glasses. RealD's 3D glasses are uniquely lightweight and comfortable - you will forget you're wearing them. They even look cool - or so we've been told! RealD glasses are specially made not only to fit everyone comfortably, but also to fit over prescription frames.
