Regal Cinemas is offering $1 tickets on family-friendly movies all summer long.

Starting Tuesday, June 10, moviegoers can snag discounted tickets on select family films every Tuesday and Wednesday as part of its Summer Movie Express, the theater chain said.

More than 400 participating theaters will screen two PG-rated movies each week until Aug. 6, offering $1 tickets for the first show of the day, according to a news release.

“Once again, we are excited to bring back this highly anticipated summer program of crowd-pleasing entertainment for groups of all sizes at an incredibly affordable price,” Brooks LeBoeuf, senior vice president of U.S. Content for Regal, said in the release.

Family movies playing this summer include “Sing 2,” “IF,” “PAW Patrol, The Movie,” and more.

Customers can also grab discounted concessions, including a $5 snack pack that comes with a small drink, snack-sized popcorn and fruit snacks, according to the movie theater’s website.

The summer months are usually the busiest for most theaters, and “foot traffic is everything,” The Hollywood Reporter reported in May 2024. Citing industry experts and data, the outlet reported that the profit margin on single tickets is around 33% and jumps to “56 percent on a concession.”

Rival AMC Theaters is also looking to woo moviegoers with half-priced tickets for Stubs Rewards members every Wednesday this summer, McClatchy News reported.

The discount launches July 9 and will be available in addition to the Tuesday ticket discount currently offered to the chain’s rewards members.
