61 cinemas granted subsidies

March 9, 2022

The Cinemas Subsidy Scheme under the sixth round of the Anti-epidemic Fund received applications from every cinema operator and relevant subsidies were disbursed to all 61 eligible cinemas today, the Commerce & Economic Development Bureau said.

 

The scheme, which opened for applications on February 18, seeks to provide a one-off subsidy of $100,000 per screen to each existing cinema licensed as a place of public entertainment with commercial operation in December last year.

 

The maximum subsidy for a cinema circuit is $3 million.
