Popular cinema at XSite Braehead to reopen this week
The ODEON IMAX cinema at XSite Braehead will welcome customers again on Tuesday, August 5.
It comes after the cinema was recently refurbished to include the 'groundbreaking' IMAX with Laser system.
This is said to provide moviegoers with an 'unparalleled' visual and audio experience.
Bruce Harley, XSite centre manager, said: 'We're excited to unveil the brand-new ODEON IMAX with Laser here at XSite.
'As a leading entertainment destination, we're committed to providing our visitors an elevated experience, and the arrival of these screens will be a fantastic addition, making every visit to XSite even more special.'

Guests will now be able to enjoy some of the latest blockbusters on the newly upgraded screens, including Marvel's The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
The recent transformation includes a huge investment to upgrade to IMAX's most advanced cinematic technology, IMAX with Laser.
This uses a 4K laser projection system featuring a new optical engine and a suite of proprietary IMAX technologies that deliver 'crystal-clear' IMAX laser projection, enhanced resolution, deeper contrast, and distinct colours.

In addition to the visual upgrades, the cinema now boasts a multi-channel audio system offering the ultimate audio immersion exclusive to IMAX screens.
The system is supported by IMAX's 24/7/365 network operations centre and features built-in image calibration and audio tuning.
Laura Canavan Doyle, senior marketing manager at ODEON Cinemas, said: 'We're delighted to expand our long-standing partnership with IMAX as we continue investing in our cinemas to elevate movie experiences.
'We look forward to welcoming guests back to our Braehead cinema at XSite.'
