"Regal is so fortunate to be able to give back during Avalon's week-long grand opening festivities. The activities add to our celebration and are representative of our role as a community gathering place," says Christine White, regional marketing manager for Regal Entertainment Group. "Giving back to community organizations is another way that we are able to show our gratitude toward moviegoers in Alpharetta while also showing-off our brand new luxury theatre."

At Avalon 12, guests are invited to Wine, Dine and Recline in this new state-of-the-art theatre featuring Regal King Size Recliners providing more room, comfort and true luxury. Each recliner has an electric control for multiple positions and features padded footrests. The luxury experience continues in the lobby where a full bar is available with adjacent lounge seating, providing a place to chat and relax before and after the show. Along with traditional movie snacks, specialty food items are also available featuring a varied selection of appetizers, entrees and desserts.

Avalon 12 also offers the Regal Crown Club to reward frequent guests. Regal fans can access their card through their mobile device for easy access on-the go by downloading the Regal Movies app. Users can program their favorite theatre, gather movie information, select showtimes and purchase tickets. The Regal Crown Club is the number one theatre loyalty program in the country, allowing patrons to accumulate credits at the box office and concession stand to earn free popcorn, soft drinks and movies. Free membership is available at the theatre or online. Moviegoers can also stay connected through Regal Cinemas' Facebook page and Twitter account, @RegalMovies.

The 12-screen theatre can accommodate over 1,200 moviegoers. Patrons will enjoy digital projection in every auditorium and stadium seating, with each row elevated for an unobstructed view. For more information about the Regal Crown Club program, grand opening activities and showtimes, please visit www.REGmovies.com.

Also available at Avalon is a cutting-edge technology, the Sony Entertainment Access System, to assist moviegoers who are deaf, hard of hearing, blind or low vision. The system includes specially designed lightweight eyewear for guests who are deaf or hard of hearing to privately view closed captioned text directly in their line of sight for both 2D and 3D movies. This assistive technology also includes a wireless receiver that provides access to descriptive audio tracks via a pair of headsets for guests who are blind or have low vision. The access glasses and audio headsets allow moviegoers to individually enjoy the cinema experience in a relaxed, natural way without the inconvenience of separate screening times or special seating.

Guests desiring such accommodations need only request the Sony Entertainment Access System from any manager. Captions and descriptive audio can only be accessed by use of this equipment and it is not available to other moviegoers. To select films offering this service, online showtimes will note: "Accessibility devices available."
