Cinema excitement!
New complex offers Welkomites latest releases at lower prices Marti Will TOMORROW Nu Metro officially opens a state-of-the-art cinema complex of just under R10 million in The Strip, Welkom. With two 3D and three 2D theatres, the five cinemas will seat around 600 people. All of the cinemas utilise top-of-therange digital projection technology along with JPL audio systems and speakers, Dolby Digital full-surround sound and the latest in cinema exhibition hardware to guarantee a world-class cinema experience. Nitesh Matai, marketing manager of Nu Metro Cinemas, says they are pleased to confirm that cinema ticket prices for the new Nu Metro Welkom cinema complex will be lower than at the other cinemas in major metropolitan areas. Pieter Botha, the Welkom Nu Metro manager, says a unique aspect of the movie theatres in Welkom will be the selection of lover’s seats to accommodate couples. Botha was born and bred in the Goldfields and has worked in the movie industry, in South Africa and across the continent, for more than 20 years. “Welkom’s new releases will be day and date on a par with the rest of the country,” Botha says. Welkom, as the second largest city in the Free State, was identified for the latest cinema complex in the Nu Metro stable. Matai says Nu Metro identified a definite captive audience for cinema in Welkom. “We believe the critical mass is present for strong consumer support. Furthermore, with the development of The Strip and casino across the road, we are confident that the city is developing at an encouraging pace,” says Matai. “Nu Metro Cinemas is excited to be a part of new business developments in Welkom, and will contribute in the form of worldclass movie entertainment for all residents and visitors to enjoy.” Ari Abatzoglou, who is co-owner of The Strip in Welkom with his brother Johnny, says they are very excited about this new venture. “Welkom needs something like this and I am confident that it will be a major success,” says Ari.
THE official opening of the stateoftheart Nu Metro Cinema Complex in Welkom on Friday (07/08) is causing quite a stir.

It is this cinema complex that has been totally stripped and revamped to become the ultra-modern Nu Metro Complex of today.
