Lumiere is set to open at The Mercury shopping centre in March 2023, with a focus on providing a diverse cinema experience. The venue, formerly Premiere Cinemas, is nearing halfway to its crowdfunding goal of £100,000 for refurbishment. Plans include the launch of seven screens, offering a range of films from new releases to indie and international titles. Additional features like a lounge, luxury screening options, and facilities for those with disabilities are expected to roll out over the following months, with an emphasis on community involvement through a cooperative membership model.
In a Facebook post, parent charity Romford Film Trust said it is now "making a final push" to get as much as possible up and running before the launch.
Lumiere hopes to open the lounge, its first lux screen with "comfy" sofas, and start up its Monday night quiz by May.
