  • I book my session online on the mobile app or the website.
  • I must wear a mask in my cinema and during the whole session.
  • Two seats to the left and right of each group of spectators are automatically blocked.

At the entrance to the cinema, markings have been placed on the floor for social distancing.

Health measures in place:

It should be noted that similar social distancing markings have been installed in Disney Village.

Disney and me, it's a long love story. I fell into it as a child and never got out. From movies to theme parks, through the history of the Walt Disney Company, to comic books, everything fascinates me.
