I just found the summer hack of the YEAR and I am OBSESSED. 😍 Regal Cinemas and AMC Theatres are both bringing back their summer kids’ movie programs — and we’re talking cheap, air-conditioned, kid-approved fun, friends! I kid you not! Here’s everything you need to know to plan your summer on the cheap!🍿
🎬 Regal Cinemas Summer Movie Express — $1 Tickets!
ONE. DOLLAR. tickets, friends. 🙌 Starting June 1 through August 13, Mondays through Thursdays at 11 a.m., you can take your kiddos (or in my case, my eleventy-billion) to a real, actual, air-conditioned movie theater for the price of literal pocket change. And here’s the cherry on top — you can grab $3 off a Snack Pack with a junior drink, popcorn, AND fruit gummies, or a cup of Dippin’ Dots. You’re welcome. 😍
Here’s the Regal Cinemas’ $1 summer movies lineup:
- Sing
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem
- Kung Fu Panda 4
- David
- K-Pop Demon Hunters: A Sing-Along Event

🎬 AMC Summer Movie Camp — $3 Tickets!
AMC isn’t sitting this one out either! Their AMC Theatres’ Summer Movie Camp kicks off June 22 and runs through August 12, with $3 tickets — and a portion of the proceeds benefits the Will Rogers Motion Picture Pioneers Foundation. Which honestly? Makes the whole thing even sweeter. ❤️

And in case you’re wondering why BOTH chains are showing “Muppets Treasure Island” — friends, it’s celebrating its 30th anniversary this year! How did THAT happen?? 😭
Listen — when the heat is melting your sidewalks and the kids have asked “what are we doing today” eleventy-billion times before 10 a.m., THIS is your golden ticket. Cheap, air-conditioned, and the kids leave HAPPY?
That’s a win in my book, y’know? Drink in every second of this summer, friends. ✨❤️
