Keeping your kids entertained over the summer can stretch your budget, but fortunately, we’ve spotted a deal on cheap cinema tickets at Cineworld to help make your family days out a little more affordable.
Cineworld is currently offering £1 tickets to much-loved family films including Moana 2, Paddington in Peru, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and A Minecraft Movie until 28 August.
Ticket prices vary across the country, but typically, it costs £10 for a child, £13.99 for an adult and £39.96 for a family of four. After you’ve added on the snacks, a trip to the cinema can end up being a pricey day out, so this deal is an excellent chance to save.
The £1 ticket isn’t available for new releases, but there are still plenty of popular films from the past year or so to choose from. Disney fans can follow Moana and friends on her ocean adventures in Moana 2 or sing-along with Snow White in Disney’s live-action musical of the fairy tale classic. Oscar-winning animation Flow is also included in the line-up, as well as last year’s big release, Paddington in Peru.
