Casino Cinema in Sierre: family films and big-screen broadcasts

The town-centre cinema of Sierre

On Avenue Général-Guisan, the Casino Cinema forms, together with Le Bourg, the pair of halls in Sierre, the Cinémas de Sierre. You come for the big films of the moment, with a few screenings in 3D, and for high-definition broadcasts of operas and ballets. A town-centre outing, easy to reach, a stone’s throw from the station.

What your children will discover

The Casino regularly shows the animated features and family hits of the moment. For a dedicated children’s film club, it is the neighbouring hall, Le Bourg, that hosts La Lanterne Magique. The Casino remains a safe bet for a family big-screen outing.

What you do there and the atmosphere on site

You get your ticket, and settle into the hall. The atmosphere is that of a friendly town-centre cinema, which also programmes cultural events (live operas and ballets). The centre of Sierre, very close, lets you extend the outing.
