The Belgian cinema chain Kinepolis has had a good quarter. This is partly due to the success of a few blockbusters, such as a Minecraft Movie , Lilo & Stitch and the last part of Mission: Impossible .
Among other things, because of those successful films, Kinepolis received 17 percent more visitors than in the second quarter of last year, the cinema chain reports Thursday. That amounts to 14.3 million visitors.
The start of this year was a bit more difficult. According to the company, this is due to a limited blockbuster offer. Turnover increased by 6.2 percent over the first half year, which amounts to 257.9 million euros. This is not only because there were more cinema visitors, but also because the turnover rose per visitor. For example, Kinepolis achieved more sales from drinks and snacks.
