Upstate NY Theater Offers 5-Gallon Popcorn Deal for National Popcorn Day
In celebration of National Popcorn Day, Cinemark is offering a unique promotion for moviegoers in Upstate New York. Customers can fill any bucket they bring with up to five gallons of popcorn for just $5, available on January 18 and 19. This exciting event highlights the theater chain’s “Bring Your Own Bucket” initiative.
Cinemark’s Special Popcorn Deal
This limited-time offer allows movie fans to bring various containers such as buckets, tubs, or coolers to fill with popcorn. The maximum capacity is 400 ounces, translating to about 25 pounds, for only $5, plus tax.
Exclusive Offer with Lowe’s Partnership
Notably, if participants carry a five-gallon Lowe’s bucket, they can fill it up to approximately 650 ounces of popcorn. Cinemark is even providing bucket liners upon request. This offer presents significant savings, especially as an extra-large tub of popcorn normally retails for $9.95 for just 200 ounces.
- Date of Promotion: January 18 and 19
- Location: Cinemark Tinseltown Rochester and IMAX, 2291 Buffalo Rd, Rochester
- Offer: Fill a container with up to 400 ounces of popcorn for $5
- Lowe’s Bucket Special: Fill a five-gallon Lowe’s bucket for approximately 650 ounces
More Than Just a Snack
This promotion is particularly unique as it does not require customers to purchase a movie ticket to participate. This allows families to enjoy popcorn while watching their favorite films at home, whether it’s a series like “Stranger Things” or enjoying NFL playoffs.
Extra Incentives for Moviegoers
Cinemark is enhancing the popcorn experience with an online game where participants can win free popcorn for an entire year. This game runs through January 19 at cinemark.com/popcornday. As part of the partnership with Lowe’s, customers can also access a coupon valid from February 1 to February 26 for future popcorn cravings.
This two-day event follows last year’s successful inaugural BYOB celebration. Popularity from last year inspired Cinemark to expand the event into two days for added convenience and enjoyment for moviegoers.
Nurturing Community Connections
“Last year’s event redefined National Popcorn Day for our fans, who showcased creativity with their containers,” said Wanda Gierhart Fearing, Cinemark’s Chief Marketing and Content Officer. “We are excited to collaborate with Lowe’s this year to enhance the festivities.” Jen Wilson, Lowe’s Senior VP, echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the joy of shared experiences at the movies.
With over 300 Cinemark locations across the nation, cinema enthusiasts are encouraged to check out their nearest theaters for further details. This promotion is a delightful way to celebrate National Popcorn Day while enjoying the company of friends and family.
