What is National Cinema Weekend?
National Cinema Weekend is an annual event where participating cinemas across the UK offer discounted tickets. It's a great excuse to catch a film for less.
Will Blue Light Card have cheaper tickets than National Cinema Weekend deals?
Blue Light Card gives you reliable savings on cinema tickets, day in, day out. During events like National Cinema Weekend, some cinemas run their own short-term offers that can beat ours. On those days, it's worth checking prices directly with your local cinema.
Either way, you can still save on food, drinks and snacks every time you go.
Which cinemas are included in National Cinema Weekend?
National Cinema Weekend is a UK-wide initiative, but not every cinema takes part. Check your local cinema's website directly to confirm they're involved and to see their pricing.
Do I need to book in advance for National Cinema Weekend?
We'd recommend booking early, as popular showings can fill up quickly during discount weekends. Check your chosen cinema's website for how they're handling bookings.
Blue Light Card discounts for food, drink and snacks can be ordered in advance or even when you’re queuing in the foyer. Whatever's easiest for you!
Can I get a refund for my Cinema Voucher?
Please see our dedicated Refunds and Cancellations page for more information. If you want to make the most of your local cinema's discounts this weekend, you can also save your Blue Light Card Cinema vouchers to use at a later date!
Can I use my Cinema Vouchers during National Cinema Weekend?
