frequent concerts, performances, and music festivals of many descriptions, and in summer many of these take<br />
place outdoors. The main concentration of night life attractions are in the Beyoğlu/Taksim area of the European<br />

10.8.1. CINEMAS<br />
Most cinemas in <strong>Istanbul</strong> show European and American films in the original version with Turkish sub-titles, with<br />
the exception of children's films, which are typically dubbed in Turkish. Very few cinemas offer original<br />
screenings, though in the past IICS parents have made private arrangements with an area cinema to give a<br />
special group showing.<br />
Some cinemas are chains, while others reside in cultural centers such as Atatürk Kültür Merkezi, Aksanat, etc.<br />
There are annual film festivals. Many cinemas have a discounted admission day once a week. Some luxury<br />
cinemas, like Mayadrom, have plush reclining chairs for maximum comfort.<br />
