Regal Cinemas says it will reopen nearly a dozen movie theaters in New York since the Coronavirus Pandemic began.
The reopening will happen on Friday, according to the company. They announced that locations at Destiny USA in Syracuse and Eastview Mall in Victor were among those that would reopen.
“We are grateful to finally have initial guidelines from the state. With the implementation of robust health and safety measures as a part of our commitment to the CinemaSafe protocols, our New York theatres and staff are thoroughly prepared for a safe and sustainable reopening. After seven months, we are thrilled to welcome back our beloved staff and customers,” said Mooky Greidinger, CEO of Regal’s parent company Cineworld. “We are sure that the next step will be opening of cinemas in New York City, which is still critical for the recovery of the industry.”
Other locations in Syracuse were not included in the reopening list.
