As New Zealand drops down to COVID-19 Level 1, cinemas can open everywhere though not all have done so immediately.
The easiest way to see which cinemas are opening their doors is to check our cinemas list. This shows the cinemas near you or in your selected location and highlights which have movies showing. Select a cinema to see their movies and session times.
