When it comes to free & cheap movies, summer is the best time of year to find them. You’ve got quite a few options, especially if you’re looking for ways to entertain the kids:
- If your city is like mine, you’ll often find free summer movie nights held at local parks or historic squares. Check the Parks & Recreation page on your local city’s or county’s website for info.
- Dollar-movie theatres & drive-ins remain a bargain.
- Each summer, the major chains often run summer movie festivals, screening free or cheap family movies during the week. The details change each year, but you’ll often find the deal at participating Carmike Cinemas & Regal Entertainment Group. AMC Theatres cancelled its Summer MovieCamp promotion for 2011, but you can still save a bit if you show up during value pricing hours or take advantage of other offers, like buying cheap tickets via Entertainment book.
And free & cheap movie deals pop up throughout the year, so subscribe to email updates, follow @citiescheap on Twitter, like Cities on the Cheap on Facebook, or add us to a Google+ circle to stay in the know.
