Pre-book your Discovery Cinema tickets now on KAUSTCentral

19 January, 2025

Campus and Community (C&C), in collaboration with KAUST Smart, is happy to announce that you can pre-book your cinema tickets using the KAUSTCentral app.  

Using the Cinema tab inside the Recreation feature, you can browse movies, secure your seats, pay online, manage reservations, and even order food—all in one place. 

Make your movie-going experience seamless and enjoyable with these features: 

  • Discover movies: Browse feature films of the week with detailed information, ratings and time slots.  
  • Easy ticket booking: Book tickets for yourself, your family, or your friends directly in the app. Payments are quick, secure, and hassle-free right through the app. 
  • Manage your tickets: Access all your bookings in one place, cancel tickets if needed, and receive refunds effortlessly. Note that cancellations need to be made before the movie starts to receive refunds.  
  • Convenient check-in: Scan your ticket confirmation QR code at the cinema for fast and easy entry. 
  • Order dining on-the-go: Find a short cut to the KAUSTCentral food feature to order from your favorite restaurants anytime. 

Note: Walk-in tickets are still available at Discovery Cinema before a movie starts. However, during peak hours, tickets may sell out quickly—so pre-booking is highly recommended. 

For questions or feedback, email us at cinema@kaust.edu.sa or call us at 808-6528.
