VOX cinemas has announced that they will be open 24 hours, every weekend for the rest of the summer.

This new move caters to the night owls who want to watch films at 3am, as well as the early birds who are hoping to catch a 7am showing before the rest of the city is awake. 

The announcement was made via twitter on Monday, with many positive comments from movie goers. 

A VOX Cinema spokesperson gave Gulf News more details over email about the special summer movie offer. 

The 24-hour movie weekends will be available at select malls including: Mall of the Emirates, City Centre Deira and City Centre Mirdif.

Lucky for all the adults, Late night shows will not include movies targeted to kids including animation films. 

This is not the first time the UAE has screened movies for 24 hours, but this will be the first time that it is a regular event, taking place over the entire weekend.

Big movies of this week include Skyscraper, Ant-Man and The Wasp, Jurassic World, Oceans 8 and the Purge. 

The movie weekends will take place every Thursdays and Fridays and kicks off this Thursday July 12.

The special summer event will run until the end of August
