Bellingham, WA gives advertisers direct access to one of the Pacific Northwest's most educated local audiences. At a population of 92,367, a median age of 34.5, and 46.5% of residents holding a bachelor's degree or higher, this college-influenced market skews younger and more attentive than most regional TV or streaming audiences.
The city's only theater, Barkley Village with IMAX RPX, runs 16 screens and delivers an estimated 38,400 monthly moviegoer impressions. That concentration means your campaign reaches a meaningful share of active Bellingham consumers in a single, high-attention environment. Bellingham falls under the Seattle-Tacoma market and is priced at Tier 2 rates, with a 4-week run starting around $2,054. For brands targeting younger, cord-cutting consumers with household incomes near $65,821, cinema advertising here offers measurable reach without the clutter of digital or the shrinking viewership of traditional TV.
Real ranges for a 4-week :30 campaign. Final pricing depends on theaters selected, seasonality, and the 2026 film slate.
| Buy type | 4-week cost | CPM range | Reach |

Peak attention, before the trailers
Plays in the mid-pre-show pod when theater attention peaks. Our most-requested slot.
The last ad before the feature
The premium position — the final commercial before the feature begins. Highest recall, unskippable.

Retarget moviegoers on CTV and OTT

Display and mobile ad retargeting to the verified moviegoer audience. Geo, demo, and behavior layers.
A 4-week cinema campaign in Bellingham runs between $2,054 and $4,108, depending on screen count and ad placement format. The CPM range of $47 to $60 is competitive given the audience quality. With one theater in the market, your budget stays concentrated instead of spread across multiple locations.
Barkley Village generates an estimated 38,400 moviegoer impressions per month across its 16 screens. These are in-seat, captive viewers, not scrollable impressions. Cinema advertising consistently scores 2 to 6 times higher attention ratings than live sports and 6 to 16 times higher than social or digital placements.
Common advertisers include local restaurants, auto dealers, healthcare providers, universities, real estate firms, and regional retailers. Nationally, cinema campaigns have driven a 34% lift in auto dealership foot traffic and a 53% increase in incremental retail visits. For businesses that depend on local customer action, those are hard numbers to ignore.
Ad placements include the pre-show on-screen segment, lobby screens, and in some cases digital displays throughout the building. The on-screen pre-show is the primary placement. Your ad runs to a full seated audience in a dark room, with no competing content and no way to skip.
Yes. Alcohol, tobacco, firearms, cannabis, and political advertising are not accepted through cinema ad networks, and all campaigns go through a creative review process. If your business falls into one of those categories, Alluvit Media can help identify alternative placements that reach a similar audience.
Bellingham's moviegoing audience skews younger, with a median age of 30, and 60% are cord-cutters or cord-nevers. TV and most streaming ads simply don't reach them efficiently. Cinema delivers a verified in-seat impression with no ad blockers, no skipping, and no multitasking. That's why attention metrics consistently outperform both CTV and YouTube.
