Cinemark BYO Popcorn Bucket to fill for $5, plus Deals, Discount Days, and more

Going to the movies can be expensive, but Cinemark has special deals and movies series throughout the year so you can get your movie fill for less!

National Popcorn Day

Cinemark is making National Popcorn Day more budget friendly for movie lovers. On Jan. 18 and 19, the movie theater is celebrating in multiple ways!

BYOB: Bring Your Own Bucket

On January 18 and 19, bring a bucket or vessel of your choice to fill with regular popcorn or kettle corn (where available). They’ll fill it for $5 (no refills)! Size matters (a little). They’ll fill anything up to 400 oz, which is equal to about two extra-large Cinemark popcorn tubs.

Not sure what to use? Bring in a Lowe’s 5-gallon blue bucket and get a FREE medium popcorn when you buy any medium fountain drink.* (These buckets are not rated as food-safe, but Cinemark will provide a free food-grade liner to use)

Gift Card Discounts

On National Popcorn Day, all Cinemark gift card sales will be 10% off as part of our celebration. This is an online-only offer on 1/18 and 1/19.
