Beginning as early as June 4, participating Regal Cinemas host Summer Movie Express showing select movies for $1 per person. With multiple locations in our area, we can meet up with friends.
This option works great for our family as my 3-year-old may not sit through the movie. Having other adults staying inside the theater with my older ones gives me freedom to take my 3-year-old out when needed.
What – Summer Movie Express
Rated G and PG movies for $1 per person paid the morning of the movie at the box office.
Note: A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Will Rogers Institute, which supports research in asthma, tuberculosis, and pulmonary diseases.
Where – Chain of Theatres
The Summer Movie Express is available at participating Regal Cinemas, United Artists Theatres, and Edwards Theatres locations.
When – This Summer
Beginning in June and ending in August, select movies will play at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The series runs for 9 weeks with each location choosing the starting and ending dates. Check the Summer Movie Express page of Regal Cinemas’ website for available theatres near you.

When we visited our Regal Cinemas, they showed both options in different theaters. We just chose which movie we wanted to see. If we wanted to see both movies for $1 showing that week, then we needed to attend both the Tuesday and the Wednesday showings.
In planning your summer activities, movies for $1 is hard to beat. If you will attend, consider becoming a Facebook fan, Twitter follower, newsletter recipient, etc. of your local theater. Loyal customers receive periodic coupons and freebies.
On our last visit, a friend sent a text code and received free popcorn, so spending a little time to check for deals can net you a great experience without breaking the bank.
With all these great summer opportunities, our calendar is not lacking for options. Now we just need to decide which activities to attend while using time wisely. Happy summer planning!
