Cinépolis is coming to Winter Garden

Upscale theater brand Cinépolis USA will open at Hamlin Town Center this summer , as part of its “ Luxury Cinema ” line . The 40,000-square-foot Cinépolis Luxury Cinemas Hamlin will offer 10 auditoriums with 782 seats .

Although no specific date for their grand opening is set , the summer date is greatly anticipated by not only those who live in Horizon West neighborhoods , but folks from Winter Garden , Oakland and Clermont as well . The nearest multiplex theaters to those areas are the West Orange 5 , AMC West Oaks 14 , Epic Theatres of Clermont , and AMC Disney Springs 24 with Dine-In Theatres .
The new location will feature something a bit different than the others , though . Moviegoers will enjoy a total luxury experience in each theatre outfitted with cutting edge sound and projection technology and fully reclining , oversized leather seats set up stadium-style , each seat above the one in front of it . Cinépolis Hamlin will also boast reserved seating , in-theater waiter service and gourmet dining with full bar , all available at the touch of a button . There will also a bar amongst the elegant spaces of the lobby , where you can enjoy a cocktail or take it into the theater .
