Silky Otter aims to take boutique cinema to the next level in Christchurch
A new eight-screen boutique cinema in Christchurch is now operating under level 2 pandemic restrictions after a gala opening was postponed by the level 4 lockdown last month.
Silky Otter cinema in Wigram had a soft opening on July 31 and was just starting to build momentum when the level 4 lockdown took hold.
Silky Otter chief executive Neil Lambert said he hoped to hold an official gala for the new cinema around the opening of the new James Bond film No Time To Die on October 7.
The growing cinema chain is New Zealand owned and has a two-screen cinema in Auckland as well as the new Christchurch eight-screen. New cinemas are planned in Ponsonby in Auckland, Nelson and Queenstown.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
