Did you ever watch movies from the popular ‘Bibadda’ Cinema Halls? With famous video jokers like Vj Jjingo commentating over the full movie with witty phrases and overly dramatic expressions. As a kid, I would sit outside the Kibadda and listen to the whole movie when I couldn’t afford the ticket, but oh my, when I retold it to my mates, they couldn’t tell that I hadn’t seen a single frame of ‘Revenge of the Pumpkin-head’. (I would find out later the actual title of this movie)
Anyone who loves movies must appreciate the cinematic and grand escapism the medium provides. Epic action sequences, dramatic emotional moments, and the Marvel/DC superhero fantasy euphoria: movies are the ultimate entertainment source, only second to music. If it’s a blockbuster film, there’s only one way to see it – not on a laptop or phone while in a taxi en route home, but on the big cinema screen, 3D or otherwise.
In Kampala, there is only one Cinema Franchise offering that experience – CENTURY CINEMAX UGANDA, with branches at Acacia Mall Kisementi, Metroplex Naalya, and now a brand new High-end and exclusive cinema hall at ARENA MALL, Nsambya.
WHAT IS ON OFFER?
Located at the contemporary Arena Mall in Nsambya, the newly opened Century Cinemax Hall is a promise for a better quality picture, sound, and the comfort you would get at home watching your favorite movie with friends and family.

The Screens: Standard, Max, and Gold.
The Standard Screen seats a 101 audience, while the MAX screen has a capacity of 221 with 22 recliner chairs that have the comfort of a truly first-class experience. For a more exclusive bargain, the GOLD is a true VIP offering with only 44 seats and a coming soon waiting-lounge fit for that premium ticket.
All three halls have Grey projector screens that offer a high contrast picture and laser beam projectors, HD surround sound, and 2D/3D options with an eatery area with popcorn and all drinks on the menu. Ticket prices for all the screens range from 10,000 – 25,000ugx and a private show exclusive offer at 2 million UGX.
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
If you can’t get to Accacia or Metroplex and are looking for that special and exclusive movie experience, go check out the brand new century Cinemax at Arena mall.
