Sunday, August 27th was National Cinema Day 2023, and many movie theaters across the US & Canada celebrated by offering movie tickets for as low as $3 or $4!

Some of the participating theaters included Cinemark, Regal, AMC Theaters, Alamo Drafthouse, Harkins Theaters, NCG Cinema, Celebration Cinema, and Marcus Theaters.

It may be a good idea to snag your tickets before heading to your preferred movie theater as the wait could be quite long. Last year, lots of people took advantage of this opportunity to see an inexpensive movie on the weekend!

In 2023, there were a ton of great movies to choose from on this highly anticipated $3 movie day, including the new Blue Beetle from DC onlineics, Sound of Freedom, Strays with Jamie Fox & Will Ferrell, Barbie, Oppenheimer, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Grand Turismo!

We also noticed a few theaters are showing older movies like Jurassic Park (30th Anniversary) and American Graffiti (50th Anniversary)! Plus, The Little Mermaid, Spider-Man Across the Spiderverse, Super Mario Brothers, Haunted Mansion, and Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny are still playing in select locations!
