In this Tier 4 market, CPMs run between $34 and $40, and a 4-week campaign starts at $1,006.

Cinema advertising has documented strong results across these categories: a 34% increase in auto dealer foot traffic and 53% incremental retail visits tied to cinema campaigns.

Where exactly do ads appear in a cinema campaign?

Ads run on screen before the feature film in the pre-show segment. Depending on the package, placements can include the noisy pre-show closer to showtime or the premium first-run position. Lobby digital displays and other in-theater formats may also be available at Tinseltown Mission, subject to current inventory.

How does cinema advertising compare to streaming or local TV in Mission?

Cinema delivers attention ratings 6 to 16 times higher than social and digital platforms, and 2 to 6 times higher than live sports. There is no skip button, no competing content on screen. With 60% of moviegoers being cord-cutters, cinema also reaches audiences that local TV and cable largely miss.

How long does a cinema ad campaign run, and is a short run worthwhile?

The standard campaign unit is 4 weeks, matching typical film booking cycles. At 27,200 monthly impressions across 17 screens, a single 4-week flight in Mission gives a focused local audience solid, repeated exposure. Campaigns can be extended or repeated across multiple booking periods to build reach over time.

Are there industries that cannot advertise at movie theaters in Mission?

Yes. Alcohol, tobacco, firearms, cannabis, and political advertising are not accepted through the cinema advertising network. These restrictions apply across the network regardless of local laws. Advertisers in those categories will need to look at other channels. Most consumer, service, and B2B categories are eligible without issue.
