Tired of watching movies from within the four walls of a theatre. Well, film buffs can now chill out: watch your favourite movies in the open, pop-corn packets in town! The ‘open air cinema’ experience is coming to the UAE for the first time, wherein movie fans can look forward to something much more than a typical movie experience. A Swiss entertainment giant, and a local company have announced that ‘Hyrda Open Air Cinema UAE 2008’, a mega open air entertainment, will be unveiled in the UAE this November.

“The environment in the UAE is very conducive for this concept,” said Farzin Samadian, the CEO of the Swiss company. “What makes this concept unique is the giant screen that is placed in some exquisite locations,” he added. The shows will begin at 7pm.

The Open Air Cinema will entertain an estimated crowd of 2,000 people per night for 12 nights in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

The screens will be placed at the Madinat Jumeirah from November 4 to 15, and at Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi from November 26 to December 6.

The cinema experience will be enhanced by a 32-speaker digital surround sound, international cuisine and pre-movie entertainment, with a special celebrity night.
