Final cost depends on flight length and how your dates line up with the film release calendar, so every campaign is quoted individually. Request a quote for current pricing in this market.

Common advertisers include local and regional QSR brands, auto dealerships, healthcare providers, financial services, and retailers. National studies show auto advertisers see a 34% lift in foot traffic and retailers see 53% more incremental visits after cinema campaigns. Newark's high median income makes it a strong fit for premium product categories.

Ads run on screen before the feature film begins, during what is called the pre-show. The audience is seated and focused, with no remote control and no way to skip. Cinema advertising delivers attention ratings 2 to 6 times higher than live sports and 6 to 16 times higher than social or digital platforms.

Sixty percent of moviegoers nationally are cord-cutters or cord-nevers, so broadcast and cable miss them entirely. CTV and YouTube reach some of this group, but cinema outperforms both on verified attention metrics. In a market like San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose, where media costs run high across every channel, cinema delivers a competitive cost with measurably higher engagement.

Alcohol, tobacco, firearms, cannabis, and political advertising are not accepted for cinema placements. These restrictions apply regardless of market or theater location. If your business falls outside those categories, most formats and messaging approaches are eligible. A campaign consultant can review your creative and category before booking.

Four weeks is the standard minimum, and it fits how film schedules and audience cycles actually work. Newark's NewPark 12 draws an estimated 38,400 monthly impressions, so a single 4-week flight puts your brand in front of a local audience with a median household income above $164,000. Run longer and you build frequency, which compounds awareness over time.
