Galway’s €8 Million State-Of-The-Art Cinema Set To Open Its Doors This Week

Galway's long-awaited, state-of-the-art cinema is finally ready to welcome the public inside its doors this Friday.

Several funding, contractual and structural issues have caused the Pálás Cinema to be delayed.  

However, the €8.4 million cinema announced on Twitter today that it will finally be opening this Friday February 23.

The tweet read: "Opening date announcement! Pálás will open this Friday Feb 23rd with evening and night screenings of LadyBird, The Shape of Water & I, Tonya! Tickets for all screenings will be available to purchase from tomorrow."
