History

Cinema City entered the Romanian market in 2007 with the opening of its first multiplex at Sun Plaza in Bucharest. During the following years, the company expanded rapidly by opening cinemas in major shopping centres throughout Romania.

The company introduced Romania's first commercial IMAX theatre in 2009, followed by the country's first 4DX auditorium in 2013. In subsequent years, Cinema City also introduced VIP auditoriums and ScreenX technology at selected locations.

Cinema City Romania is part of Cinema City International, one of the largest cinema operators in Central and Eastern Europe, which became part of the Cineworld Group in 2014.
