Cape Town, 10 December 2025: Cavendish Square is delighted to announce the imminent opening of Nu Metro cinemas in the centre. The newly renovated cinema complex that will open on Monday, 15 December at 2 PM, will bring a modern, luxurious and comfortable movie-going experience to one of Cape Town’s most popular shopping destinations.

The cinema includes seven VIP theatres and one dedicated KIDZ children’s cinema together with a Scene Bistro & Bar, which provides a complete big screen entertainment and dining experience. The complex is set to release the new films every week with a lineup of blockbuster releases on the cards for the rest of the year.

Luxurious VIP Cinemas and a Space for Families

The Nu Metro VIP cinemas were designed with comfort and sophistication in mind. Each theatre includes plush leather recliner seating. Plus, the option to order from the menu at the Scene Bistro & Bar, with food being served directly to one’s seat, adds a layer of convenience and luxury to the experience. Guests can also enjoy the dining and cocktail experience before or after their movie with a menu that includes signature cocktails, fine wines and mocktails.

The KIDZ Cinema has been specially created for younger audiences, with colourful seating, themed décor, and a lineup of family-friendly films. This is an ideal venue for birthday parties, school outings and family entertainment, with kid-friendly snacks and meals also available from Scene Bistro & Bar.

Convenient and Rewarding

The new location offers digital ticketing, online booking, and access to exclusive discounts through Nu Metro’s partnerships with Nedbank, ABSA, Momentum Multiply, Sanlam Reality, Vodacom, and Clientele. Guests can also look forward to special events and promotions throughout the year.

“Our aim is to create a happy holiday spirit that feels warm and joyful,” says Faizah Behardien, Centre Manager at Cavendish Square. “The festive season is about connection, kindness and creating memories, and we are delighted to offer our shoppers experiences that reflect that spirit.”

Whether for a romantic date, drinks with friends, or a casual dinner before the latest blockbuster, Scene Bistro & Bar offers the perfect setting within the Nu Metro Cavendish Square complex.
