Family-run boutique cinema to open in Sale

A new independent cinema is opening in the newly regenerated Stanley Square in Sale.
The boutique, family-run venue is throwing its door open for a public launch on Wednesday.
Comprising three screens, The Northern Light promises an unparalleled cinematic experience, showcasing the latest Hollywood has to offer as well as independent, foreign language, classic films, National Theatre Productions, and other live events from around the globe.
Film fans can look forward to an impressive line-up, including a special Valentine’s Day screening of the highly anticipated Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy. This will be followed by Dog Man and the classic Captain America.
The new attraction will be bought to Stanley Square by the family-owned business, Manero Cinemas Limited, owners of the Rex in Wilmslow and Savoy in Heaton Moor.
Owner and managing director or Manero Cinemas Limited, Tony Mundin, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled for the launch next week and can’t wait to welcome both local businesses and the public for a first look at our new cinema. The Northern Light Cinema will offer an affordable yet luxurious experience, making it easier for everyone in Sale to enjoy regular trips to the movies. Our focus is on exceptional service and comfort, ensuring that every visit is a fantastic one.”
The Northern Light Cinema is offering screens with wheelchair spaces, and the venue is equipped with Dolby Accessibility Solutions, allowing visitors to enjoy captions or audio descriptions for most films.
For those who prefer a more sensory-friendly experience, the cinema also offers Relaxed Screenings, where lighting and sound levels are lowered to create a more comfortable environment.
The opening of The Northern Light Cinema is part of the ongoing regeneration of Stanley Square.
Michael Brown director of Altered Space, the organisation behind the regenerated development said: “We’re delighted to welcome The Northern Light Cinema to Stanley Square. This fantastic addition will not only enhance the entertainment offering but also bring more visitors to the area throughout the day and into the evening. It perfectly complements our vibrant line-up of food and beverage businesses, creating an even more exciting destination for the community.”
