Movie goers in Saskatoon will have a new option next year after Magic Lantern Theatres announced it will open a new first-run cinema in the Brighton neighbourhood.

The cinema will be part of Brighton Marketplace currently under development by Dream Centres.

“There is something so special about going to the movies, it transcends generations and serves as a point of connection – a feeling Brighton is trying to evoke in its community,” Josh Kaufman, senior vice president of retail and commercial development Dream Centres, said.

“Dream is thrilled to partner with Magic Lantern Theatres to provide Saskatoon residents with additional opportunities to engage in the movie going experience. This addition continues to position the Brighton Marketplace as a premiere destination for entertainment, leisure and shopping.”
