New multi-screen Vox Cinemas to open at Dubai’s Wafi mall
The 16-screen multiplex, located in the new extension at Wafi, will include signature concepts such as Max, Kids, Samsung LED screen, three VIP screens and three new concept screens, a statement said.
The Kids screens will show a range of family friendly films and animated content while the Max concept will feature a mega-screen experience with spacious seating options.
Along with cinemas, the multiplex will feature a soft play area, bumper cars, kids square and bowling.
It will also include new F&B outlets in the food hall concept as well as a candy bar.
“We have recently been through a repositioning exercise at Wafi to focus on families and following the opening of Carrefour, we are extremely excited for this next phase with the cinema and our upcoming five-star Sofitel hotel which is scheduled to open late 2019,” said Louwrens Marais, general manager at Wafi Property.
