Where to book a private screening of 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' – and how much it could cost you
If there's a will, there's No Way Home.
With a few days left until the theatrical release of Spider-Man: No Way Home in the Philippines, fans are already on the edge of their seats awaiting Jan. 8.
But whether you've already bought tickets or are willing to try your luck on same-day showings, the implementation of Alert Level 3 could seriously dampen the movie-watching experience with less seating capacity.
Here are a few protocols to remember:
- Only fully vaccinated adults are permitted (with presented authentic vaccination cards)
- 30% capacity is allowed (+10% if establishments are granted a Safety Seal Certification)
- No eating inside the cinema
- Ticket-purchasing will be contactless
- Seating must be socially-distanced
But if you have the means and enough fully-vaccinated companion, why not opt for a private/block screening of the highly anticipated film? As opposed to the usual movie-going experience, block screenings can provide a sense of safety as you'll be renting out an entire cinema in full capacity. Meaning, you can have the full cinematic experience while physically distancing to your heart's content.
Here's a running list of cinemas offering block screenings for Spider-Man: No Way Home.
