Cineplex Summer Wrapup: Big Savings to Seal the Summer in Style

As summer winds down, Cineplex is rolling out an easy win for movie fans: $5 general admission movie tickets and $5 small popcorns, available only August 30 and 31, 2025 as part of the Cineplex Summer Wrapup. It’s a simple, low-cost way to squeeze in one more big-screen night before fall hits.

Why Cinema-Lovers are Buzzing

  • Blockbuster prices, budget-friendly fun: Moviegoers can catch a new release or revisit a favorite—without spending much.
  • Fabulous food deal: A small popcorn rings in at just $5.
  • Flexible booking: Tickets open for purchase starting Wednesday, August 27.

Ticket Cost Breakdown

In-person purchases
General admission: $5 (plus tax)
Small popcorn: $5

Online purchases
CineClub members: $5 (no booking fee)
Scene+ members: $5 + $1 booking fee
General public: $5 + up to $1.50 booking fee depending on transaction method

Upgrade the Experience

Those who like a little extra can choose IMAX, UltraAVX, or VIP for an additional surcharge—nice if a bigger screen, comfier seats, or extra immersion sounds appealing.

A Deal That Gives Back

There’s a feel-good angle to the Cineplex Summer Wrapup, too. A portion of proceeds from the weekend goes to the Canadian Picture Pioneers (CPP), a long-standing organization that supports people in Canada’s motion picture industry.

Scene+ Bonus Perks

  • Earn points on every purchase
  • Reduced booking fee ($1 versus $1.50 for non-members)
  • Redeem points for movies, snacks, and fun at places like The Rec Room and Playdium

Tips to Catch the Savings

  • Book early: Tickets go live Wednesday, August 27, and popular showtimes can move fast.
  • Compare prices: Buying in person avoids online fees—handy for families and groups.
  • Support the cause: Every ticket helps industry workers through CPP.
  • Maximize rewards with Scene+: Points add up, and the fee is lower.

Wrap-Up Thoughts

The Cineplex Summer Wrapup looks like an easy, affordable way to cap the season. Whether it’s a first watch, a rewatch, or just a night out for the big-screen vibe, the deal is straightforward and community-friendly. It only runs August 30–31, so a bit of planning goes a long way.
