A CINEMA WHICH has been planned for three years will open in Finglas in Dublin next month.
The Odeon cinema in Charlestown will open on 16 October, bringing 65 new jobs to the area.
That will bring the company’s staff in Ireland to 440 in 11 outlets.
The cinema will feature nine screens, one of which will house the company’s massive iSense screen.
It will be joined in the shopping centre by Starbucks, Leisureplex and TGI Fridays in the coming months.
Douglas Brennan, Brand Manager of ODEON cinemas Ireland said,
“We’re very excited to be a new part of the Finglas community, and are delighted to have 65 new colleagues joining our team.
“Our new cinema is looking and sounding fantastic, and we are looking forward to welcoming everyone in Finglas as they join us.”

Great news !
A main thing Charlestown was missing was a cinema.
It’s actually a cinema that had been completely built three years ago but had acoustic problems so didn’t open to the public… after it was funded by Nama( €12 million ). Glad its finally opening.
Yawn!! What’s with the negative comments .. new jobs for a lot of people & a fantastic new amenity on the northside .. Some people feed of this stuff for the hell of it
That will be a beacon of anti social behaviour.
Multiple smoke detectors in the cinema tuned for Jonny Blue, and metal detectors on the way in for can’s of Bud! ;)
HUZZAH. Things can only get better :- \
Massive isence screen. Makes me smile
I’m guessing there won’t be any subtitled film showing
No we’re all fluent in many languages here in Finglas
carlsberg don’t do comebacks, but boy if they did
By replying in English you proved that ? Your a fool
He might have been going for the Fr. Ted quote.
Enda “Your a fool” no, you’re a fool.
Or he could be hard of hearing?
Seriously Great – Only hope they don’t leave the ceiling lights on like they do in their Blanch iSense one.
Cinemas should be dark.
