The inaugural National Cinema Day is right around the corner after the National Association of Theatre Owners’ nonprofit Cinema Foundation announced the discount day aimed at increasing movie theater attendance. This means you’ll be able to enjoy $3 movie tickets and a handful of other deals on Saturday, Sept. 3.
All U.S. locations of AMC, Cinemark and Regal will offer $3 tickets for every Sept. 3 showing for all formats, including 4DX, ScreenX, IMAX and RPX. AMC is also offering a $5 fountain drink and popcorn combo.
Western Washington’s Far Away Entertainment’s seven theaters will offer discounted tickets and a free size upgrade on popcorn. In addition to the discounted tickets, SIFF will offer a 10% discount on new memberships, with new members entered to win 25 free popcorn servings for the year. Big Picture in Issaquah and Majestic Bay Theatres in Ballard will also offer $3 screenings. The $3 ticket prices may not include tax or convenience fees.
