Kettering Odeon cinema closing date announced as brand moves 20 miles down A43 to Northampton

Kettering’s only, and soon-to-be-demolished cinema, has announced its final day to its customers.

Odeon group say they had been in ‘constructive’ negotiations in an attempt to keep the eight-screen cinema open, but talks were ‘ultimately unsuccessful’.

Apologising to customers, the Odeon revealed the complex in Pegasus Court off Pytchley Road would close on Tuesday, January 28, 2025.

A spokesman for Team Odeon said: “We are sorry to announce that we have made the very difficult decision to close Odeon Kettering on January 28, 2025, following constructive, but ultimately unsuccessful negotiations, it was agreed that Odeon would end its occupation of the site.

"We would like to thank you for choosing Odeon Kettering to enjoy the magic of cinema and we hope that you'll continue to be our guest in our other cinemas.”

In a surprise announcement, Odeon announced they would be moving their Odeon Luxe brand to Northampton.

Last week Cineworld said they would be pulling out from their Sixfields site in January 2025.
