Glasgow is one of the most bustling and exciting cities to live in and be a part of! The massive choice of entertainment and social events, restaurants and bars, nightclubs and venues available make it impossible to be bored on any night of the week - never mind the weekend! Cinema plays a massive part in this as well and by massive, I mean in size. Glasgow is the place of Europe's tallest cinema! Yes, at 203 feet tall with over 12 stories and 18 screens, Cineworld in Renfrew Street can seat more than 43,000 people!! Located smack bang in the middle of Glasgow - just a hop, skip and a jump away from Buchanan Street and Sauchiehall Street, this cinema is positively impossible to miss! It is also the busiest customer based cinema in the UK - very impressive and most definitely a deserved place in the Guinness World Book of Records!
Since 1896 over 800 cinemas have operated within Glasgow. Once named the 'Cinema City' in its heyday, Glaswegians visited cinemas on a more regular basis than anyone else in the world! Although this has dramatically declined - with now only around 13 cinemas in Glasgow, the desire and demand for cinema is still going strong!
