MOVIEGOERS can again enjoy movies on the big screen as SM Cinemas re-open at select branches starting on October 14 with enhanced safety measures for a much-missed fun movie watching experience.

The branches reopening include SM Cinemas in Angono, Bacoor, Baguio, Baliuag, Cabanatuan, Calamba, Cauayan, CDO Downtown, Dasmariñas, Davao, Lanang, Legazpi, Lucena, Marilao, Masinag, Molino, Naga, Olongapo Central, Pampanga, Rosales, San Jose, San Mateo, San Pablo, Santa Rosa, Tarlac, Taytay, Telabastagan and Trece Martirez. These areas placed under modified general community quarantine (MGCQ) following the guidelines set by the Inter-Agency Task Force.

As its theaters welcome movie goers once more, SM Cinema highlights the safety procedures that need to be observed for a worry-free movie-going experience through its #SafeandFunMovieWatching campaign.

All patrons need to wear face masks and face shields. A seat gap policy will be enforced. There will be fewer screenings daily for mandatory intensive sanitation of the theaters and high-touch surfaces. Alcohol and sanitizer dispensers are mandatory within the cinema premises.

SM Cinema is encouraging cashless transactions by booking tickets in advance through the website and mobile app, as well as by using touch-free payment methods. A contact tracing program is also in place through scanning the quick response (QR) code found in the cinema lobby.
