ODEON LUXE & DINE Islington

ODEON LUXE & DINE Islington has 6 screens with varying capacities: Screen 1 (47 seats), Screen 2 (32 seats), Screen 3 (32 seats), Screen 4 (32 seats), Screen 5 (40 seats), and Screen 6 (30 seats). Individual screen hire costs £800 + VAT per screen for corporate events, while private film screenings cost £1,395 including VAT for up to 30 people. The largest single screen capacity is 47 seats, so groups over this size would need multiple screens or should consider alternative ODEON locations.

All venue hire includes exclusive screen and auditorium use with in-house AV equipment supporting presentation-style setup on screen, 1 microphone as standard, staffing and technical support on the day, and a mandatory technical rehearsal scheduled at least 3 days prior to the event. Additional microphones cost £50 each, and quotes are valid for 14 days.

For private film screenings, current release films are included in the standard price. Older films can be sourced but typically incur an additional distributor rights fee of approximately £250 including VAT. You'll need to specify which films you want to screen when booking, and availability must be confirmed with the Film booking Team.

Standard cinema refreshments include: Tea and Coffee (£2.50 per person), Bottled Water (£1.90), Medium Popcorn (£4.90), Water/Popcorn/Sweets combo (£8.50), Nachos and three dips or hot dog with sweets and water (£12.50 including VAT). All prices listed are per person and exclude VAT unless specified. Additional catering options can be discussed based on your specific event requirements.

Based on actual quotes provided, private film screenings start at £1,395 including VAT for up to 30 people. Corporate presentation-style events cost £800 + VAT per screen. The venue has indicated that budgets under £300 are typically not viable for private screenings, and customers with very limited budgets are often referred to alternative venues.

You must schedule a mandatory technical rehearsal at least 3 days prior to your event. Quotes are valid for 14 days, and availability must be double-checked with the Film booking Team before confirming any booking. The venue recommends site visits which can be arranged with either the sales executive or a dedicated Cinema Manager.

Events can run during cinema operating hours, with setup time typically starting 30 minutes before guest arrival. For example, a 1-hour screening from 13:00-14:00 would include setup from 12:30. The venue operates Monday to Friday 09:00-17:00 for business enquiries, and all technical rehearsals must be completed at least 3 days before your event.

Full venue buyout is available for £9,500 + VAT, which provides private access to the entire foyer and all screens for up to 150 guests. This is required if you want exclusive use of foyer spaces during cinema operating hours, as the cinema normally remains open to the public. Partial foyer use is limited to 30-50 people maximum due to fire safety regulations.

No, ODEON LUXE & DINE Islington does not have IMAX screens. The venue only offers standard cinema screens with luxury recliner seating. Customers specifically requesting IMAX capabilities are advised to consider other ODEON locations or alternative venues.

If your event requirements exceed the venue's capacity or capabilities, the sales team will actively help find you an alternative venue. For groups over 100 people needing a single screen, they recommend ODEON Tottenham Court Road or ODEON LUXE Holloway, and the same sales executive can handle bookings at these alternative locations.
