Past meets plush in Youghal's rejuvenated Regal cinema

Film fans in an east Cork resort have been promised a “future of cinema” experience with the re-opening of one of Ireland’s oldest picture palaces following a €500,000 transformation.

The aim of Youghal’s Regal cinema is to return magic to the movies with the ultimate in sight and sound technology, art deco interior and restored original features.

Customers can also bring drinks to their seats from a standalone licenced wine bar and café, or order from attendants during performances.
