The majority of UK cinemas will close in light of the Queen's state funeral on Monday, but a select few are opening their doors to screen the proceedings for free. Many major supermarket chains, hardware stores and high street shops have confirmed they are remaining closed for Bank Holiday Monday, in order to honour the late monarch and allow their staff to pay their respects.
Yet around 150 sites across the UK have all announced plans to screen the Queen's funeral at their cinemas free of charge, giving the public the chance to mourn collectively. Vue, Curzon and Arc are all screening the proceedings, but the UK's largest cinema chains, Odeon and Cineworld, are closing for the whole day of September 19.
