About Novo Cinema

Novo Cinemas is home to the most innovative entertainment experiences in the Middle East, offering each visitor A Great Time Out since 2014. With a rich legacy of cinema firsts, a passion for movies, and a mission to entertain film fans everywhere, Novo Cinemas is proud to be the largest and most visited chain of theatres in the Middle East. Our journey began in 2000 under the Grand Cinemas brand. The launch of the flagship Grand Cineplex in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, would be the cornerstone of an entertainment chain that would soon extend across borders and introduce to the region such pioneering technologies as online booking, e-kiosks, and the first cinema-dedicated mobile app, in addition to the UAE’s only IMAX screen. We opened our doors at World Trade Centre-Abu Dhabi, a location near and dear to Emirati hearts in the capital’s old central market, and took premium cinema to Qatar, welcoming movie-goers at the luxury island destination of The Pearl-Qatar.
