UGC

UGC is a large cinema group in Belgium, mainly screening mainstream movies. It’s conveniently situated in the heart of Antwerp and easy accessible by public transport. Undercover car parking is also available, just don’t forget to validate your ticket for a discounted rate (only available after 18h).
A regular movie ticket is priced at 9.90 €! A cinema trip can become quite expensive nowadays.
If u’re looking for a low-​cost hobby? Apply for an UGC Unlimited membership (18.90 € /​month) and watch as many movies as u can handle!
The options at the concession stand are pretty standard: popcorn, candy, soft drinks, etc. Just skip the overpriced movie snacks and save some bucks and a lot of kcal. If u can’t live without your movie treats, u could buy them at the supermarket downstairs and sneak it into the movies. Just to be clear, i’m not suggesting u to hide it in your bags because i’m a law-​abiding citizen.

The UGC cinema is conveniently located in the center of Antwerp. For me that means an easy 10 minute walk.
UGC offers many options for movie lovers. They have an unlimited pass, 7 pass, and 5 pass. I’ve done the math and for me the 5 pass works best. For € 35 I essentially have 5 movie tickets (if I see a movie with my husband I use 2 of the tickets) that I can use during non-​peak periods — so Sunday night through Friday afternoon — for 60 days. This is perfect for me because I hate a crowded viewing room.
If you want to know the math you need to think of how often you want to go to the movies each month. Two or less, then the 5 pass is cheapest, 3 or more then the unlimited pass. You need to take into account the administration fee of one extra month for the unlimited pass. For me two is plenty because I don’t want to feel obligated to watch movies. I want to go to the cinema to see great movies! So like now, around awards season I may buy a lot of 5 passes but when there aren’t any good movies out I may go a few months without buying a pass.
For opera lovers they offer the exciting opportunity to watch many great works live from Paris! I’ve been twice already and both times have been blown away!
