On National Cinema Day Movie Tickets Will Only Cost You $4!
National Cinema Day returns on August 27th, and if you go see a movie that day at the theater, tickets will only cost you $4! All movies and all formats including IMAX! More than 3,000 locations with approximately 30,000 available screens across the country are expected to take part in the one-day event.
National Cinema Day is designed to “celebrate the power of movies to bring us all together”, but part of the design is also obviously to get people to theaters, fill those seats, and experience the magic of movies! According to the National Association of Theater Owners, last year’s inaugural National Cinema Day resulted in the highest-attended day of 2022. That means there’s going to be a lot of popcorn and concessions sales.
Jackie Brenneman, president of the Cinema Foundation, said in a statement: “Following the rousing success of the first annual National Cinema Day, we welcome everyone to join us for the communal experience of one of America’s favorite pasttimes — moviegoing. We look forward to gathering at the movies and celebrating an exciting slate of new releases and classics, from beloved family favorites and outrageous comedies to thought-provoking dramas and thrilling adventures. There’s something for everyone.”
Michael O’Leary, president and CEO of the National Association of Theatre Owners added: “Movies have the power to bring us together to share in the joy, the thrill and the magic of a great story told on the big screen. National Cinema Day is a celebration of movie fandom and of the uniting role that movie theaters play in our communities.”
Jerramy Hainline, senior VP of Fandango Ticketing, a sponsor of the event said: “With consumer appetite for top-notch entertainment at a high, and a blockbuster slate of summer movies still in theaters, National Cinema Day allows movie lovers across the country a chance to see one or several titles at a great price.”
As for the movies that will be available… whatever is in the theater! Barbie, Oppenheimer, Gran Turismo, The Last Voyage of the Demeter, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, The Hill, and more!
