Cineplex Cinemas Bayers Lake Re-Named Scotiabank Theatre Halifax

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - October 16, 2014) - Cineplex Entertainment (TSX: CGX) and Scotiabank (TSX: BNS)(NYSE: BNS) today announced that Cineplex Cinemas Bayers Lake, one of Cineplex's flagship locations in Atlantic Canada, will be re-named Scotiabank Theatre Halifax. 

Guests can expect theatre signage to begin changing soon. Movie listings will also be updated to reflect the change.

The re-naming is part of the previously announced naming rights expansion, which will see the Scotiabank Theatre name added to Cineplex locations in Halifax, Nova Scotia; Saskatoon, Saskatchewan; and St. John's, Newfoundland. Cineplex currently operates Scotiabank Theatres in Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto, and Montreal.

"We are proud that our long-standing partnership with Scotiabank now extends to Halifax," said Ellis Jacob, President and CEO, Cineplex Entertainment. "We look forward to adding the Scotiabank name to our flagship theatre in Halifax, a decision made all the more appropriate by the bank's historic origins in the city."

"We are excited to work with our partners at Cineplex as we introduce the Scotiabank Theatre to Halifax," said John Doig, Scotiabank Chief Marketing Officer. "This city is home to some dedicated movie-lovers and we invite them to take part in our SCENE program so they can earn FREE movie, entertainment and lifestyle rewards as they enjoy going to the movies."

In 2007, Scotiabank and Cineplex joined forces to launch SCENE, Canada's first-ever entertainment loyalty program, that gives movie-lovers the opportunity to collect points every time they go the movies. The program's more than six million members can also accelerate their points to earn FREE movies faster by signing up for the SCENE debit or VISA cards.
