Global Flavors Meet Big-Screen Luxury at World Kitchens Platinum Cinema
WORLD KITCHENS PLATINUM CINEMA offers a premium movie experience at Araneta City, combining viewing comfort with delectable global flavors. This deluxe venue features 40 La-Z-Boy recliners for spacious and luxurious seating, paired with Digital Dolby Surround Sound for an immersive vibe. Elevating this cinema concept is an exclusive partnership with World Kitchens, a one-of-a-kind, first-of-its-kind five-star dining destination at Gateway Mall 2. Indulge in international cuisines inspired by the comfort food of the world while enjoying the latest blockbuster in an intimate theater. At World Kitchens Platinum Cinema, every film screening becomes a flavorful escape.
There’s no shortage of places in Metro Manila where one can watch a movie in comfort. Reclining seats, surround sound, and plush interiors have become the gold standard for upscale cinemas. But Araneta City takes the concept a bold step further with the World Kitchens Platinum Cinema.
Located at the Gateway Cineplex 18 of Gateway Mall, this premium cinema combines the indulgence of a private screening room with the culinary flair of WORLD KITCHENS, the five-star dining concept at Gateway Mall 2 that redefines mall food culture. It’s a natural pairing: both the cinema and the dining space deliver a mix of comfort and sophistication that doesn’t sacrifice substance for style.
The price of admission to this experience is ₱990, which covers not only a seat in one of the cinema’s 40 La-Z-Boy recliners (complete with a personal side table and a near-horizontal recline) but also a variety of delicious dishes from the diverse showkitchens of World Kitchens. Each ticket includes a bottled water and a choice from an impressive list of signature international cuisines:
What sets World Kitchens Platinum Cinema apart is that it doesn’t treat food as an add-on—it’s integral to the experience. Guests can also order additional items à la carte from the World Kitchens menu and have them delivered straight to their seats. The idea is to graze as you go, without having to leave your seat or miss a moment of the film.
All these are available in an intimate, soundproof cinema equipped with Digital Dolby Surround Sound, ensuring that the movie itself doesn’t take a backseat. It’s the kind of setting that works for date nights, exclusive screenings, or for those who believe that watching a movie shouldn’t mean just settling for the usual popcorn.
World Kitchens Platinum Cinema highlights a growing trend in entertainment at the City of Firsts: the shift toward multi-sensory, food-forward experiences. Earlier this year, Araneta City opened the Wolfgang’s Premiere Lounge at Gateway Mall 2, where moviegoers can enjoy gourmet meals from Wolfgang’s Steakhouse while watching a film in an elevated cinema setting.
This new entertainment setup allows both dining and movie viewing to happen at the same time—seamlessly, stylishly, and deliciously—not separately. It’s about giving people a reason to linger longer, to savor more, and to remember not just the movie they watched, but the meal they enjoyed alongside it.
So whether you’re in it for the film, the food, or both, World Kitchens Platinum Cinema invites you to settle in, dig into a variety of international food choices, and enjoy the show!
World Kitchens Platinum Cinema is located at Level 4 of Gateway Mall 1. Book your tickets via the Araneta City Mobile app: https://qrco.de/bbPerg
