A visit to the cinema is exciting, yes, but also rather predictable when it comes to seat choices. Most theatres have the usual standard seats or premium cushy ones that most of us would only splurge on for special occasions. But in case you haven’t noticed, things have been switching up recently – just read our piece featuring Shaw Theatres Dreamers at Balestier.
An upcoming opening you won’t want to miss is Cathay Cineplex at Century Square, which offers wave-shaped seats and assisted listening devices for the hearing impaired. Also, snag promos like free movies and cheap tickets when you visit before the official launch on 21st November 2023.

Not many things can beat “free”. Easties looking for a budget date idea or family outing should save the dates: 17th-19th November 2023. During this soft launch period, visitors can enjoy free movie screenings, available first come first serve. You can also snag weekend tickets at just $7.75 (U.P. $15.50).
More details on the free screenings are yet to be announced so stay tuned to Cathay Cineplex’s website and Instagram to be amongst the first to enjoy the cinema FOC.
If you’ve got some time during this long weekend, also swing by their pop-up event at the Century Square Atrium. Between 10th-13th November 2023, stand a chance to win Wave Seat movie tickets and movie vouchers. You can also have a go at a sure-win capsule machine with prizes including Pop Mart, Toyogo, and Kellogg’s products.

A cinema in Century Square may sound familiar – that’s because the same space on the top floor of the mall used to be occupied by Filmgarde. Cathay Cineplex at Century Square officially opens on 21st November 2023 with 6 spanking new halls that brings to mind a hipster millionaire’s private theatre.

Apart from aesthetic strips of neon lights, those who love the experience of watching Netflix in bed can expect something similar with the Wave Seats here. Every hall has 2 of these fancy beds placed right at the front. Placed at an optimised angle, these reclined loungers for 2 may be a game changer for all those who usually avoid the front row.
One hall will have a Dolby Atmos system for audiophiles, and every hall will have Assisted Listening Device Systems for the hearing-impaired.

While video streaming services tempt us lazy folks with movies from home, nothing beats catching the latest blockbuster on the big screen. Lie back like a couch potato and still enjoy surround sound when you swing by Cathay Cineplexes at Century Square.
Wave Seat prices have not been announced, but for reference, standard Cathay prices start from $7/student and $11.50/adult for 2D movie tickets on weekdays. Movies you can watch in the cinema now include Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, Marvel Studios’ The Marvels, and Five Nights at Freddy’s.
