Cineplex will give Scene+ members a free small popcorn with a valid movie ticket during an extended National Popcorn Days event. The promotion runs from Friday, January 16 to Monday, January 19, 2026.
Members can claim one small popcorn per day with a ticket for a showtime on the same day, meaning you can get up to four free bags if you attend a screening each day of the promotion.
How the offer works
To qualify, you must be a Scene+ member and present a valid movie ticket for a showtime on January 16, 17, 18 or 19. Scan your Scene+ membership card or the barcode in the Scene+ app at the concessions stand on the same day as your screening, and you will receive a small bag of popcorn at no charge.
Scan your membership card or the barcode in the Scene+ app at concessions on the same day as your movie screening.
Cineplex promotion terms
Limits and exclusions
- One free small popcorn per Scene+ member per day, with a valid ticket for that day.
- Offer valid only at participating Cineplex Canada theatres for in-person concession purchases.
- Popcorn toppings are extra.
- The offer is not valid for Poptopia-branded popcorn or concession combos.
- Not valid for delivery, online orders or mobile orders placed through Cineplex.
Scene+ is free to join and does not require a monthly or yearly fee. The free popcorn must be claimed on the same calendar day as the movie showtime printed on your ticket, so you cannot redeem later.
How to claim and practical tips
- Join Scene+ ahead of time and add your membership barcode to the app or print your card.
- Buy or reserve tickets for the showtime date you plan to redeem, and keep the ticket accessible.
- Scan your membership at the concession stand on the same day as your showtime to receive the free popcorn.
- If you want more than one free bag across the promotion, buy a ticket for each day and return to concessions on each date.
- Confirm participating locations before you go, as offers may vary by theatre.
What to expect at the counter
The promotion covers a small popcorn only. Any flavouring, mix-ins or gourmet Poptopia options will be charged extra. The offer will not apply to bundled concession combos that already include popcorn.
Lines at ticket counters and concessions can be busy during promotional periods. If you plan to claim the free popcorn, set aside a bit of extra time before or after your screening to avoid missing it.
Why this matters
The extended four-day promotion gives Scene+ members a straightforward way to pick up a free snack while attending films. For regular moviegoers the offer can stack across multiple days, and for occasional attendees it provides a small, no-cost perk on the day of a visit.
Check Cineplex’s website or the Scene+ app for full terms and to confirm participating theatres before you go.
If you plan to take advantage of National Popcorn Days, bring your Scene+ membership and your movie ticket, and expect to show both at the concession stand on the day of your screening.
