The seventh – the Reel Lounge – will offer customers a premium cinema-going experience rarely seen outside of London and the UK’s largest cities, with luxury sofa seating and waiter/waitress service.

Kailash Suri, managing director of Reel Cinemas Ltd, said “We are delighted that work will be under way shortly on our new Reel Cinema Burnley, and that we will be able to

offer our customers old and new a truly outstanding cinema-going experience, the likes of which is currently unavailable in the town.

"Reel Cinemas prides itself on offering our audience members great customer service, complete comfort and value for money. The new Reel Cinema Burnley will continue to give the local community somewhere to spend quality time with family and friends.”

Until work on the new Pioneer Place development is completed, and the new cinema opened, the existing Reel Cinema will remain open in its current location.
