As the Government of Jersey sets out its vision for Fort Regent as a vibrant hub for leisure and culture, one of the major anchor features of the transformation is a brand-new six-screen cinema which will replace the existing ten-screen cinema at the Waterfront.

The inclusion of a cinema was overwhelmingly supported by the community in a recent survey on the future for Fort Regent. It was one of the highest rated activities, scoring 8 out of 10 in the over 16s survey, and 87% support from the 11-16 age group.

To explore what this means for the Island, join Rob Arthur, founding director of Entertainment Solution Services Ltd, for an exclusive presentation hosted by Jersey Development Company on the future of cinema and leisure in Jersey – including the proposed new cinema at Fort Regent.

Rob is currently leading a comprehensive review of Jersey’s cinema landscape, bringing more than 30 years of international experience revitalising cinemas and leisure venues across jurisdictions that include the UK and the UAE. Rob’s unrivalled expertise is key to shaping a dynamic new entertainment destination for Jersey.
