Two tickets for Tuesday, please! If you love the movies, but don’t have money to spend like a movie mogul, you definitely want to make Tuesday your go-to day for seeing the latest blockbuster on the big screen. Tuesday is a slow day at the box office. And that’s why many movie theater chains discount tickets for the day.
As an added bonus, the crowds are much smaller during the week, so going to the movies can be a little more enjoyable for those who like a little elbow room and appreciate a quieter audience.
The discounts only apply to standard screenings. There is an upcharge for premium formats, including IMAX, 3-D and others. Premium formats vary by chain, so check pricing first before buying tickets.
Special engagements and holidays are excluded from the weekly discount.
In many cases, the Tuesday discount is more than 50% off the regular ticket price. That’s blockbuster savings for any movie lover!
