Cinema Bookings
To the right of the cinema doors, in a frame on the wall, is a cinema calendar.
To book your session, write your name, villa number and the time of your session in the date you want to reserve. If the cinema is already booked you will have to find a different day or time.
Please, check the Sands Calendar. (On the menu at the top of this page.) If there is something planned for our community that day, or a regular booking, for example, a concert in the Lounge or special event, please find another day and time.
Contact the Media Group if you need help to;
- have someone run your movie, TV event,
- set up the cinema for you (turn on the lights, open the curtains, use the audio-video equipment)

Remember, this is your cinema. Treat it like a room in your Villa. After using/visiting the cinema;
