This is the 47th Helios network facility in Poland.
The first Helios cinema in Warsaw is a unique combination of innovative technological solutions offered by modern multiplexes with the magic of old capital cinemas. Thanks to the decor and large-format, high-resolution LED screens displaying movie trailers and posters in the foyer of the cinema, the viewers will feel like on a lit Times Square. At the same time, Helios will pay tribute to the historical Warsaw cinemas and, thanks to the names of screening rooms such as Relax, Femina or Palladium, take viewers on a sentimental journey.
-The new Helios cinema in Warsaw is a beautiful, innovative object that combines two seemingly distant worlds: modern multiplexes full of technology and climatic old cinemas. Our viewers will get a chance to back in time – to the years of splendor of Warsaw cinema industry, as well as in space – straight to the bustling New York City. We would like them to be enthralled by the cinema from the very beginning of its operations and to fall in in love with Helios just in time for Valentine’s Day – comments Tomasz Jagiello, the president of the Helios cinema network.
In 8 cozy screening rooms of the new cinema halls over 850 spectators can sit on comfortable armchairs.
