Cineworld forced to close in Milton Keynes because it's too cold for customers
MK’s popular Cineworld cinema has been forced to close down temporarily due to heating problems.
Cineworld bosses posted on social media yesterday (Sunday January 4) that they were closing "due to unforeseen circumstances.”
They promised to post updates once the place was open again but gave no indication of how long it would be.
Customers who booked tickets in advance have been refunded their money and told the problem stems from the building’s boiler that heats all the cinema rooms.
One said: “It’s always chilly in Cineworld but it must be absolutely freezing with no heating. I wouldn’t fancy sitting through a film in there.”
A Cineworld spokesperson said: “. Any affected bookings will be refunded automatically. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused... Thank you for your patience and understanding.”
Cineworld is on the first floor of Xscape at CMK and has 16 screens including Superscreen, 4DX, and ScreenX.
