This Friday to Sunday,
Scene+ Members are Treated to a Free Small Bag of Popcorn in
Theatres and with All Food Delivery Orders Through DoorDash, Skip
and Uber Eats
TORONTO, Jan. 13,
2025 /CNW/ - (TSX: CGX) – Sometimes one day of
recognition just isn't enough! This year, National Popcorn Day is
taking over Cineplex theatres for the entire weekend. From
coast-to-coast, Cineplex popped a staggering 29 million kernels in
2024 and is celebrating bigger and better than ever this year by
giving away a FREE small bag of its famous popcorn to Scene+
movie-lovers for three days straight.
"Every year, we look forward to finding new ways to elevate our
annual National Popcorn Day tradition," said Sara Moore, Executive Vice President and Chief
Marketing Officer, Cineplex. "Popcorn and going to the movies have
always been the perfect match. We know how much Canadians love our
iconically delicious popcorn so extending National Popcorn Day over
the weekend was a great way to celebrate going to the movies."
From January 17 to 19,
Scene+ members who purchase a ticket to enjoy a movie in-theatre
can, on that same day, visit concessions, scan their membership
card and receive a free small bag of Cineplex's beloved
popcorn. For guests who can't make it to the theatre,
Cineplex is offering a bonus bag of popcorn for all DoorDash, Skip
and Uber Eats food orders this weekend, delivered right to their
door. To claim a free popcorn, open the DoorDash, Skip or Uber Eats
app, search 'Cineplex' and order your Cineplex snacking essentials.
A small bag of popcorn will automatically be added to your order.

Butter held the title for the most popular add-on choice of
Cineplex guests in 2024. Last year, more than 6.1 million popcorns
were topped with real butter and movie-lovers indulged in a wide
range of seasoning flavours with the top picks being Dill Pickle,
White Cheddar and Ketchup. However you celebrate and indulge this
weekend, Cineplex invites Canadians to share their popcorn
appreciation and creative popcorn concoctions on social media using
#NationalPopcornDay and #NationalPopcornWeekend, as well as on
Cineplex's social channels on Facebook (@cineplex), Instagram
