Cineplex now offers free popcorn and drink refills in Canada

Cineplex now offers free popcorn and drink refills in its theatres across Canada. 

According to Cineplex, you’ll now be able to get free refills when you purchase a large popcorn or large fountain drink. There’s no special promotion or membership needed and it is open to all Cineplex customers.

“A big part of enjoying a movie on the big screen are the snacks, so by offering our guests a free refill on their large popcorn and fountain drink, we ensure their favourite movie snack and drink doesn’t run out and more can even be enjoyed on the way home,” said Kevin Watts, executive vice president of Cineplex, in a release.

How to get your free refill at Cineplex theatres

You can upgrade to a large popcorn or fountain drink via the Cineplex mobile app or by ordering at the concession counter. You’ll be eligible for one refill on the same day and for the same visit. If you purchases one large drink and one large popcorn,  you can get refills on both.

The offer can’t be applied to delivery orders.

In September, Cineplex confirmed that its theatres would be getting some upgrades in the near future.

The National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO) said eight of the largest theatre chains in the United States and Canada — including Cineplex — would be investing millions to “modernize and upgrade” their locations over the next three years.

At the time, Cineplex said that its upgrades would be connected to “the collective investment into the exhibition industry and guest experience.”
