Because the comfort and ergonomic support of bean bag chairs benefit their customers. One type of business that is revolutionising the use of bean bags is the bean bag cinema. Whether you want to catch the latest Hollywood blockbusters or locally produced independent films, you can now do so in one of the following bean bag cinemas.
Hoyts Bean Bag Cinemas
The most popular cinemas with bean bag seating are those operated by the national cinema chain Hoyts Exhibition. Hoyts Cinemas now offers three public Bean Bag Cinemas and one semi-private location at The Royal Children’s Hospital. Hoyts allows you to see all of the latest movies in deluxe, oversized bean bags that provide enough room for two adults.
