Small cinemas to reopen on Monday

The government has allowed small, single-hall cinemas to reopen on Monday, for the first time since mid-October. Not all cinemas are expected to reopen immediately. Large multiplexes, such as Cinestar, Cinema City and Premiere Cinemas, have stated that they do not wish to reopen until they are again allowed to sell refreshments.

Monday will also see the number of people allowed to attend outdoor events raised to 1,000 and to 500 for indoor events. However, organisers are allowed to fill up event spaces only up to half of their full capacity.
