Virgin Cinemas

Virgin Cinemas was a unit of Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Group, founded when Virgin bought the MGM chain of cinemas in the United Kingdom. Virgin introduced a number of improvements to the cinema circuit including instore mini Virgin stores selling a number of CDs and the Unlimited season ticket.

In October 1999, the firm was sold on to French cinema owner and distribution firm UGC, who themselves sold the chain on to Cineworld Cinemas in 2003.
