Celebrate National Cinema Weekend with £4 tickets across every screen at Showcase Cinemas, plus epic Lord of the Rings and Hunger Games marathons this Saturday and Sunday.
If you’ve been looking for an excuse to get back to the cinema this weekend, Showcase Cinemas has just handed you one. To celebrate National Cinema Weekend on Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th September, every film, showtime and screen—including XPlus showings—will be available for just £4 per ticket. That’s right: every single screening, regardless of format, all weekend long.
It’s a rare chance to catch some of the latest big-screen releases without the usual ticket sting. Whether you’re curious about Spider-Man: Brand New Day or finally ready to see The Odyssey, you’ll be paying a flat four quid to do it. No exclusions on screen type, no premium add-ons—just straightforward, accessible cinema.
Marathon Mode: Middle-earth and Panem return
But if you’re the type who prefers to settle in for the long haul, Showcase is going even bigger. On Saturday, The Lord of the Rings trilogy returns to the big screen in full Extended Edition glory—all three films shown back-to-back. One ticket gets you the complete journey from The Shire to Mount Doom, and it’s priced at £12, which works out to £4 per film.
Then on Sunday, it’s The Hunger Games‘ turn. All four films—from Katniss volunteering as tribute through to the rebellion that reshapes Panem—will unspool in a single four-film marathon. That one’s £16 total, again breaking down to £4 per instalment. Both marathons are available at every Showcase Cinemas location nationwide, following what the chain says has been huge demand for previous marathon events.
Where to book your weekend at the movies
National Cinema Weekend is designed to remind us why the big screen matters, and Showcase is making it as easy as possible to take part. Whether you’re after a quick Saturday matinee or a full-day franchise binge, the offer runs all weekend long.
