First Look: Glorietta’s New A-Luxe Cinema is a Total Game-Changer for Moviegoers
Moviegoers in Makati have a new destination for a premium big-screen experience. Ayala Malls Glorietta has pulled back the curtain on its revamped cinemas this August, introducing the standout A-Luxe theater for those seeking top-tier comfort and technology.
The reopening marks a significant change in how we watch films, focusing on space, style, and a better overall experience. If you’ve been waiting for a good reason to leave your couch for the cinema, this might be it.

A-Luxe: Comfort Meets Cinema
The main attraction is the A-Luxe theater. This isn’t your standard cinema setup. It features an intimate arrangement with just 60 motorized recliner seats. At 710mm wide, these seats provide ample personal space and generous legroom, so you can stretch out without bumping into your neighbor.
Each seat is also equipped with its own tablet and a handy USB charging port. On the technical side, the theater uses laser projection for a clearer picture and Dolby Atmos for sound that fills the room. This combination makes every scene feel more dynamic and engaging.
A Lobby That’s Part of the Show
The changes extend beyond the theater itself. Before your movie starts, you can relax in the redesigned entertainment lobby. This area is designed as a lounge space with comfortable seating.

What really stands out is the huge 300-square-meter LED screen that covers the wall and ceiling. With a 13K resolution, it plays trailers and other cinematic content, setting the mood before you even take your seat.
Food Options Before the Film
Located next to Glorietta’s Japan/Korea Town dining area, grabbing a bite before your show is easy. If you prefer snacks during the movie, The Movie Snackbar offers fresh options to enjoy with your film.
A New Standard for Movie Watching
After months of work, the relaunch of Glorietta Cinemas shows how theaters are adapting. The focus has shifted to providing a more comfortable and spacious environment. With fewer seats and better amenities, it’s a direct response to what modern audiences want.
The new A-Luxe cinema at Glorietta presents a strong case for returning to the movies, blending the comfort of home with the powerful impact of the big screen.
