Ad placements include on-screen pre-show content running before the film, lobby displays, and digital touchpoints throughout the venue. The pre-show on-screen format is the core placement. Audiences sit in a dark room, without a second screen, for up to 20 minutes before the film begins.
Cinema reaches an audience that is 60% cord-cutters or cord-nevers, so traditional TV and most streaming buys miss them entirely. Attention scores for cinema run 6 to 16 times higher than social and digital ads, and outperform CTV and YouTube. For the 64,000 monthly impressions available in Bolingbrook, each one carries measurably more weight than its digital equivalent.
Campaigns are structured in 4-week increments. A single flight is enough to generate measurable reach given Bolingbrook's 64,000 monthly impressions. Many advertisers run consecutive flights to build frequency, particularly for seasonal promotions or product launches targeting the southwest Chicago suburbs.
