MAKING GOING TO THE MOVIES AN EVENT AGAIN

The Mayfair Theatre Orléans will focus on family-friendly programming, and will bring a greater diversity of film-going choices to Ottawa’s east end. In addition to family fare, the cinema will also offer first-run independent films and second-run Hollywood movies, as well as Québécois, other Canadian and foreign cinema. It’s the best of art house and the cineplex combined!

The owners and management are members of the team behind the renovation and reopening of the historic Mayfair Theatre on Bank St. Their aim is to make going to the movies fun again, and to offer the classic cinema experience you can’t get at home.

In contrast to chain cinemas, the Mayfair Theatre Orléans audiences:

  • Three full-sized screens
  • State-of-the-art 35mm projection on all three screens, for that classic movie feel
  • A digital projector for newer, digital-only releases
  • A 16mm projector for rare films only available in that format
  • A state-of-the-art sound system
  • 2D presentations — no dark, murky, overpriced digital 3D!
  • Ultra-comfy fixed seating — no sweaty leather or annoying rocking seats!
