AMC, Regal, Cinemark and more chains are rolling out promotions ranging from free large popcorns to bring-your-own-bucket offers.
WASHINGTON — National Popcorn Day is almost here, and movie theater chains across the country are marking the occasion with deals designed to make the classic snack a little more affordable.
This year, the holiday falls on Monday, Jan. 19, which also coincides with Martin Luther King Jr. Day. That means moviegoers have a long weekend to take advantage of popcorn promotions. From free popcorn to bring-your-own-bucket events, theaters are offering a range of incentives for fans who like their popcorn plain, extra buttery or loaded with candy.
Here’s a look at some of the National Popcorn Day deals available this year:
Cinemark is hosting a Bring Your Own Bucket event from Sunday, Jan. 18, through Monday, Jan. 19. Customers can pay $5 to fill a container of their choice, as long as it holds no more than 400 ounces — just over three gallons. The chain is also partnering with Lowe’s, allowing guests to fill a Lowe’s five-gallon blue bucket with popcorn for $5. Cinemark is also offering 10% off online gift cards during the promotion.
AMC is offering free popcorn to members of its Popcorn Pass program. From Friday, Jan. 16, through Monday, Jan. 19, Popcorn Pass holders can receive their first large popcorn for free. AMC is also rolling out popcorn-themed collectibles during the weekend.
Regal is encouraging fans to dress up. Moviegoers who wear a costume on Monday, Jan. 19, can receive a free large popcorn. Guests who post a photo in costume and tag @RegalMovies on social media may also be entered for a chance to win three months of Regal Unlimited.
Cineplex is offering a free small popcorn with the purchase of a movie ticket from Friday, Jan. 16, through Monday, Jan. 19.
Marcus Theatres is giving out a free large popcorn on Monday, Jan. 19, along with scratch-off coupons for concession prizes.
B&B Theatres will offer Backstage Pass members a free regular popcorn with the purchase of a ticket on National Popcorn Day.
Harkins Theatres is discounting popcorn by 50% in all sizes on Monday, Jan. 19. Harkins Awards members who participate will also receive a free small popcorn in February.
As always, deals may vary by location and are available for a limited time, so moviegoers should check with their local theater for details.
