$6,000 Movie Tickets!: Dates and Participating Theaters

Going to the movies is, for many, a ritual that awakens unique emotions: the thrill of entering a dark theater, smelling the freshly baked popcorn, and letting yourself be enveloped by the giant screen that transports you to distant worlds. It's a moment when routine is left behind and the viewer becomes the silent protagonist of stories that move, make you laugh, or shock you. For this reason, several movie theater chains have joined forces over the years to launch promotions that allow viewers to enjoy screenings for as little as $6,000 pesos.

Low-cost moviegoing promotions in Colombia aren't limited to a single city: they apply nationwide and cover both large and independent chains. This allows people in different regions of the country, regardless of the city's size, to access recent releases and a complete big-screen experience.

This time, the country's movie theaters announced that on September 25 and 26, the $6,000 ticket promotion will be offered at more than 125 theaters in chains such as Cinemark, Royal Films, Cinépolis, Cineland, and Cinemas Procinal . This promotion will apply to 2D formats.

The 3D formats cost $9,000 (for those two days), a much lower price than the average for these screenings. Tickets can be pre-sold starting this Tuesday, September 23rd at 3:00 pm and running through the 24th.

According to Cinemark, these prices will be valid only for screenings on the 25th and 26th. It's also important to note that purchases made through digital channels will incur a $1,400 surcharge per ticket.

Cine Colombia will not participate, but maintains its proposal

For its part, Cine Colombia indicated that, although it will not be participating on these dates, it continues its long-standing cultural offering: every Tuesday and Wednesday, at its 48 multiplexes across the country (except LÚMINA), all screenings and all formats are available at half price, all day long. This benefit is ongoing throughout the year, ensuring that Colombians can enjoy movies at the most attractive prices, always during the week.
