A cinema in Cardiff city centre has announced its sudden closure with immediate effect. The independently run Premiere Cinema announced its "untimely" closure on Monday, October 17.
The venue, which opened in the Capitol shopping centre in 2015, was popular among moviegoers in the city, offering screenings of the latest films with all general admission tickets priced at just £4. It also hosted special events, with the opening night of the Iris Prize, the world's largest LGBT+ short film competition, held at the cinema just days before its closure was announced.
In a statement, the team behind the cinema confirmed the news "with a heavy heart", saying that the closure would be effective immediately. Get the latest What's On news from WalesOnline sent straight to your inbox by signing up to our newsletter.
