De-luxe opening!
The new luxe theater, Island Cinema officially opens today at Fashion Island in Newport Beach. The seven-screen theater complex features stadium seating, and generous sized seats, arm rests, aisles and legroom. And that’s not all, on the food front: standard popcorn, candy and sodas are available, but they take a backseat for tasty sandwiches, specialty pizzas, quiches, vegetarian spring rolls, pastries and more. Or order a specialty coffee, beer, champagne or glass of wine. Just like at plays, concerts and games, you can reserve seats when you purchase tickets from a map online or at the box office.
Tickets cost $16.50.
Island Cinema is at 999 Newport Center Drive in Newport Beach.
