Aberdeen to be without any cinemas from Saturday
Belmont Filmhouse have announced a temporary closure, but they hope to be back in December. It follows Cineworld and Vue closing branches across the country for a period of time, including those in Aberdeen.
Aberdeen's last remaining open cinema has joined Cineworld and Vue in announcing a temporary closure.
Belmont Filmhouse say many of the film they planned to show this month have been delayed.
They hope to re-open for December.
On their Twitter page the Filmhouse said:
"We are sad to announce that Belmont Filmhouse will temporarily close from Sat 7 Nov. With the majority of cinemas across the UK now closed this has had a huge impact on film distribution and therefore most of what we had planned to show you is no longer available."
"This decision has not been taken lightly as we understand how much of a haven cinema has been for many of our customers. We are hoping to reopen in December, in the meantime we can’t thank you enough for your support throughout this year so far"
"We’ll be in touch to organise refunds for screenings that were due to take place on Sat 7 Nov and the rest of next week. We look forward to welcoming you back in December (all being well) for all your Christmas favourites! "
