"We are introducing Unlimited Membership Groups for new and existing members. There will be four Groups, each containing a number of Cineworld cinemas, with different pricing. Your monthly Unlimited Membership fee will depend on the Group your local Cineworld falls into.”

Chesterfield Cineworld falls into Unlimited Membership Group 2 meaning it will now cost just £15.99 a month for members compared to £18.99 previously, or a one-off annual payment of £191.88.

"This makes it even more affordable for customers to enjoy unlimited films, 10 per cent discount off cinema snacks and drinks, plus 25 per cent off at our partner restaurants,” a spokesperson for Cineworld added.

"All existing and new members also have the option to upgrade to a higher Group in order to use their Unlimited card at more cinemas."
