AMC Theatres Launching 50% Wednesdays in New Orleans

One popular movie theater company is using a retro tactic to get moviegoers back in seats: A sale.

AMC Theatres is launching a “50% Off Wednesdays” program, which offers AMC Stubs members a 50% discount on the base adult evening ticket price for all showtimes on Wednesdays.

When Does AMC’s 50% Wednesdays Start?

AMC Theatre’s 50% Wednesdays pricing begins July 9, 2025.

This applies to all AMC locations in the United States, though additional charges for premium formats like IMAX, Dolby Cinema, or 3D still apply.
