Moviegoers in the US are in for a tasty treat this month. Several major cinema chains have announced that they will be giving away free popcorn on January 19, dubbed National Popcorn Day.
To score a complimentary large popcorn at Regal Cinemas, fans will need to don a costume and can share their outfit on social media using the hashtag @regalmovies for a chance to win three months of the Regal Unlimited subscription. The catch? Be prepared to explain yourself to the concession workers.
In contrast, local chains like Philadelphia Film Society are offering more straightforward deals. For instance, customers at the organization's Center City theaters will receive 50% off popcorn on January 19.
On the other hand, Movie Tavern is giving away free large popcorn with ticket purchase on January 19, but that's not all – its parent company, Marcus Theatres, is also handing out scratch-off cards with prizes like free slushies and candy. However, if customers want to maximize their snacks, they'll need to bring a specially designated bucket.
Cinemark theaters will let moviegoers fill any container of their choosing for $5 during the two-day promotion on January 18-19. The catch? They can also claim an additional coupon for next month if they bring a particularly large bucket – we're talking five-gallon, folks!

National Popcorn Day is like, such a fun thing to look forward to every year. And I think it's awesome that some cinema chains are getting creative with their deals, you know? Like, Movie Tavern's scratch-off cards sound so cool 
. But at the same time, 50% off popcorn from Philadelphia Film Society sounds like a pretty great deal too 
. And can we talk about Cinemark's bucket thing for a sec? Five-gallon buckets for $5? That's just wild 
. I mean, are people really gonna bring those things to the movies? 
so movie lovers in the us are in for a sweet treat this month - free popcorn on national popcorn day (jan 19)! i'm totes down for that. but seriously, who doesn't love a good bucket of popcorn while watchin' their fave flick? anyway, it's not all about gettin' stuff for free... gotta give a shoutout to philly film society & movie tavern for offerin' more reasonable deals too 
I'm stoked about this National Popcorn Day deal! 
Who doesn't love free popcorn? 
But, let's break it down, shall we?
However, be prepared for some serious sales talk from those concession workers.
Get free large popcorn with ticket purchase, plus scratch-off cards with prizes like free slushies? 
. But what's really clever is how some cinemas are making it interactive, like Regal's costume contest 
. And I'm curious if they'll actually honor that coupon for a large bucket next month 
.
50% off at philly film society sounds like a solid plan to me but i think it's kinda weird that movie tavern has a special bucket for slushies, is that just a marketing gimmick or what?
this year! I mean, who doesn't love free popcorn? 
. But for real tho, Movie Tavern's scratch-off cards sound like a sick bonus 
. And can we talk about how much I love that Regal Cinemas is encouraging people to get creative with their costumes? It's all about having fun and not being a buzzkill 
. I'm gonna have to hit up at least one of these theaters just for the popcorn alone 
and take a pic to share on socials. And, guess what? You might just win 3 months of unlimited subs 
But, honestly, some other chains are just straight fire 
Philly Film Society's got the real deal - 50% off popcorn that's just 
. And don't even get me started on Movie Tavern... scratch-off cards with prizes like free slushies and candy? Yaaas! 
Also, I'm low-key salty that Cinemark is trying to upsell buckets with coupons for next month 
. It’s always fun to get free treats when you go to the movies, and who doesn't love popcorn? But what really gets me excited is that it brings everyone together. I mean, think about it – people from all over are going to be dressing up in their best costumes and sharing them on social media... it's like a big ol' community project 
. And the different promotions from each theater chain just adds to the fun. I love how Cinemark is offering those scratch-off cards with prizes – my kids would totally freak out over that 
BUT ON A MORE POSITIVE NOTE, CINEMARK IS OFFERING THOSE 5-GALLON BUCKETS AND I'M HERE FOR IT!!! 
). Can't wait to see what other fun snacks and prizes the theaters have in store!
