Cheap cinema deal this week
Watch any film at any cinema for just €4 during La Rentrée du Cinéma
SPECIAL €4 cinema seats are on offer until Wednesday as part of La Rentrée du Cinéma.
The end-of-summer event has been extended to include Wednesday, allowing people to watch some of the new releases this week including The Final Destination.
La Rentrée du Cinéma will be the third cheap ticket event this year, following Le Printemps du Cinéma in the spring and the Fête du Cinéma in June.
It is organised in partnership between La Fédération Nationale des Cinémas Français and the bank BNP Paribas. The aim is to boost cinema-going at a time of year when it traditionally slumps to an annual low.
