Yes. Cinema advertising does not accept campaigns for alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, firearms, or political candidates and causes. These restrictions apply across the network regardless of city or venue. If your business falls outside these categories, the approval process is straightforward and campaigns can typically be activated within a standard production timeline.

Placements include on-screen pre-show ads that run in the auditorium before the feature film, plus lobby digital displays in some venues. The on-screen format puts your message in front of a seated audience with no option to skip or scroll past. Average attention ratings for cinema run 2 to 6 times higher than live sports placements.

Roughly 60% of moviegoers nationally are cord-cutters or cord-nevers, so television does not reach them reliably. Cinema fills that gap with a format that cannot be skipped, blocked, or scrolled past. Attention research shows cinema outperforms CTV, YouTube, and social media on viewer engagement, making it a practical complement or alternative to digital buys.

The standard unit is a 4-week campaign, which aligns with typical film rotation cycles and gives your message enough frequency to build recall. Some advertisers run back-to-back 4-week flights to maintain presence over a full quarter. With only one theater in the city, a single buy covers the entire local cinema audience.
