Work has begun on phase two of an ambitious project which will bring a nine-screen 850 seat cinema to a Lancashire town. In February, three deals were signed, paving the way for a multi-million pound scheme to commence in Blackpool, to help revitalise the town centre.
The deals were – Blackpool council’s acquisition of Tower Street Car Park; a lease agreement for a new 22,500 sq ft Wilko store; and a deal with MMC Cinemas for a nine screen, 850 seat, 40,500 sq ft multi-media cinema complex, including the biggest immersive screen in Lancashire.
