Common advertisers include quick-service restaurants, automotive dealers, local retailers, healthcare providers, financial services, and entertainment brands. Cinema advertising has a strong track record across these categories: QSR campaigns have shown 2 to 3 times return on ad spend, auto advertisers see up to 34% increases in foot traffic, and retail brands report 53% gains in incremental store visits.

Ads run on the big screen before the feature film, as part of a pre-show program. That means full-screen, full-audio delivery to a seated audience with no scrolling, no skip button, and no competing notifications. Attention studies rate cinema 2 to 6 times higher than live sports, and 6 to 16 times higher than social or digital placements.

Roughly 60% of moviegoers in this audience are cord-cutters or cord-nevers, so traditional TV misses them entirely. Streaming reaches them, but with lower attention and a skip button one tap away. Cinema is non-skippable, with no second screen pulling focus, which is why attention ratings consistently beat CTV and YouTube in third-party measurement studies.

The standard buy is a 4-week campaign, matching the typical film rotation cycle at Northridge 10. Each week, new films bring new audiences, so your creative gets consistent exposure across different groups of moviegoers. Longer flights are available and worth considering for brands that want sustained local awareness in the Los Angeles market.
