Roxy Outdoor was a new addition to the entertainment offering at The Galleria mall in Barsha last year, and it’s a romantic spot to catch a film alfresco. They show all the latest blockbusters on plush, comfy teal couches, and you’re able to order all your favourite cinema snacks either before you sit down or from the comfort of your chair. The ultra-sharp Dolby surround sound makes sure you still get the full throttle cinematic experience.
