health rules at the cinema
From the age of 6, wearing a mask is no longer compulsory in cinemas, whether during the session in the room, but also when traveling in the establishment which projects the films. This rule comes into force from February 28, since the vaccination pass is now compulsory to access the rooms when you are over 16 years old.
People over the age of 16 must present a vaccination pass to be able to enter the cinema. You must present one of the following three proofs to go see a film in theaters: a complete vaccination schedule, a certificate of recovery from coronavirus more than 11 days or less than four months or a certificate of medical contraindication to vaccination. Negative coronavirus tests are therefore no longer valid to enter the cinema if you are over 16 years old.
Since July 21, 2021, the sanitary passa new health protocol, was necessary to go to the cinemas. It has been replaced by the vaccination pass for those over 16 years old. However, the vaccination pass does not apply to minors aged 12 to 15: the latter may therefore present a sanitary pass. As a reminder, the health pass includes a complete vaccination scheme or a negative PCR or antigen test of less than 48 hours, or a medical certificate proving that you have contracted the coronavirus. However, the self-tests do not validate the health pass.
