Curzon Wimbledon, SW19 cinephiles’ destination of choice, is getting a major refurbishment this summer.
The three-screen cinema will be closing on August 11 for about six weeks, with a reopening date scheduled for September.
The cinema’s renovation plans involve a full upgrade of the screens, the introduction of new reclining seats and expanded facilities to allow for an expanded food and drink menu. In-screen service will be part of the new look Curzon Wimbledon offering, as well as a new photo booth.
According to the press release, design company Inside Out will be ‘focusing on a rich palette that plays with pattern and texture, as well as brass finishes’ in its refurbishment. ‘A bespoke banquette introduces soft lines to the space, complementing the curves of the carefully curated loose furniture.’
‘Curzon Wimbledon has been a successful fixture of the local community for 15 years, and we’re delighted to be able to invest in the site and offer the best possible experience for cinemagoers,’ says Georgia La Trobe, Curzon’s head of property and development. ‘The designs that Inside Out have created will offer a real sense of luxury and comfort.’
‘We’d like to thank our customers in advance for their patience, and we look forward to welcoming them to our new-and-improved cinema soon.’
