Alliston, the settlement in Simcoe County, Ontario, will soon be opening a movie theatre that is focused first and foremost on the comfort of those who visit it.
Imagine Cinemas' new movie theatre in the county will have six screens, which will all contain luxury recliners rather than the stiff fold-down seats that theatre-goers are accustomed to. The recliners are similar to those offered by La-Z-Boy, and this Alliston-based theatre is the sixth in Ontario with this type of luxury seating.
Despite its focus on offering a luxury experience for those who visit it, Imagine Cinemas' will not be overcharging – instead, each movie will cost between $12 and $15, making it more affordable than the prices that larger theatres tend to charge.
