Frequently asked questions

How much does cinema advertising in North Brunswick cost?

A 4-week campaign at Commerce Center 18 runs between $4,464 and $8,928. Pricing is based on Tier 1 CPM rates of $70 to $85, placing North Brunswick within the New York market tier. Final cost depends on the number of screens selected and the ad format (on-screen pre-show or lobby placements).

What kinds of businesses advertise at North Brunswick movie theaters?

Local and regional advertisers across dining, automotive, healthcare, retail, and financial services are common cinema advertisers. National brands also use theater advertising to reinforce campaigns in specific zip codes. Auto advertisers have seen 34% increases in foot traffic, and retail brands report 53% more incremental visits when cinema is added to the media mix.

Where exactly do ads appear at the Commerce Center 18?

Ads run in the pre-show segment shown before the feature film. This is a full-motion, audio-on format displayed on the main screen while the audience is seated. Lobby placements, both static and digital, may also be available depending on the theater.

How does theater advertising compare to streaming or local TV in this market?

Cinema delivers 2 to 6 times the attention rate of live sports, and 6 to 16 times that of social and digital platforms. In New York, local TV and streaming inventory is expensive and fragmented. Theater advertising puts your message in front of a captive audience on a single screen, with no scrolling and no skip button.

Are there any industries that cannot advertise at the Commerce Center 18?

Yes. Alcohol, tobacco, firearms, cannabis, and political advertising are not accepted through this network. These restrictions apply in every market and theater. Advertisers in those categories cannot place cinema ads, and campaigns in those verticals will not be approved.

How long does a campaign need to run to be effective?

The standard buy is structured around 4-week flights, matching typical film booking cycles. Most advertisers run one to three flights to build frequency. With 57,600 monthly impressions available at the Commerce Center 18, a single 4-week flight delivers solid reach for a North Brunswick or Central New Jersey campaign.
