Looking for a fun and affordable weekend activity this September? Cineplex Community Day is making a grand return, and we’ve got all the exciting details.

On Saturday, September 14, Cineplex theatres across Canada are opening their doors for a morning of free movies and blissfully cheap snacks.

Movie lineup revealed

This year’s Community Day movie lineup features some great choices for the whole family. Here’s what you can watch for free:

  • PAW Patrol: The Movie
  • PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie
  • My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3
  • Everything Everywhere All At Once

Whether you’re wrangling the kids for some PAW Patrol fun or preparing your mind for the glorious confusion that is Everything Everywhere All At Once, there’s a little something for everyone — well, except for horror fans.

But remember, showings run from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., so set those alarms and caffeinate accordingly—nobody wants to miss the start of the multiverse madness because they hit snooze.

Snacks and donations

The best part? It’s not just the movies that are a steal. Concessions like hot, salty popcorn, ice-cold drinks, and candy will be available for just $3 each.

Plus, for every snack you buy, $1 will be donated to BGC Canada (formerly the Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada), helping fund youth empowerment programs. So, while you’re treating yourself, you’ll also be making a difference.

More than just movies

Oh, and if sitting through a movie isn’t enough excitement for you, The Rec Room and Playdium are throwing in some extra fun with free 30-minute XSCAPE game cards. Because who needs to relax when you can dominate the arcade?

And for those looking to unleash their competitive side, select locations are offering free bowling, ping-pong, and billiards—because nothing says "day out" like crushing your friends at table tennis after an emotional movie.

It gets better: for every game card you buy, $1 again goes to BGC Canada. So now you can justify your gaming marathon by saying it's for charity. You’re basically a hero with great reflexes.

How to reserve your free tickets at Cineplex

Tickets are free, but here’s the kicker: they’re first-come, first-served, so prepare for a mad dash. You can snag up to six tickets in one go, either online or at participating locations. These free seats are bound to vanish quicker than popcorn at the movies, and reservations open today, September 4.

No Cineplex account? No problem. It’s free, and it’s your golden ticket to nabbing seats before everyone else. Hot tip: log in early, or risk missing out while others swoop in like eagles hunting for prime seating.

Don’t miss out!

Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 14, because this is the ultimate excuse to leave your couch. Free movies, $3 snacks, and arcade games? It’s basically a budget-friendly dream come true. Plus, you’ll be doing some good while munching on popcorn and crushing arcade scores—look at you, multi-taskers.

Hit up the Cineplex website for all the juicy details on participating locations, and be ready to pounce on those tickets. With blockbuster flicks and prices that won’t make your wallet weep, Cineplex Community Day is the kind of event you’ll be kicking yourself for missing.
