Cinema operator’s shares are biggest riser on FTSE 250 as
UK and
Ireland box offices recover
Cineworld’s
box office revenues surpassed pre-pandemic levels at its cinemas in the UK and Ireland last month as blockbusters such as No Time to Die, Dune and Venom draw film fans back to the big screen.
The world’s second-largest cinema operator, which owns the Cineworld and Picturehouse chains in the UK and Regal Theatres in the US, said box office and concession revenues at its UK and
Irish operation in October reached 127% of the level in the equivalent month in 2019.
