SINGAPORE – Cinemas can reopen from July 13, according to a July 3 statement from the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA).
They have been closed since March 27 as part of the fight against Covid-19.
The reopenings, which are the result of consultations between the authorities and cinema operators, will take place with added safety precautions.
These include a 1m social distancing seat configuration. Up to five patrons, comprising friends and family, can sit together without the 1m distancing requirement, but different groups of patrons have to observe it.
Also, there will be a limit of 50 patrons per cinema hall. Masks will be mandatory at all times, including inside the hall, except when consuming food and drink, according to the statement.
Among the films to usher in the reopening is the highly anticipated follow-up to the zombie thriller Train To Busan (2016), one of the highest-grossing South Korean films in Singapore.
Train To Busan: Peninsula will open July 15 here, the same day it is released in South Korea.
