Salisbury, NC is part of the Charlotte market, with a population of 35,730 and a median household income of $51,058. The median age is 36.5, and residents average about 21 minutes commuting to work each day. Those numbers point to a cinema audience worth putting in front of your message.
Tinseltown Salisbury is the city's only theater. It runs 14 screens and generates an estimated 33,600 monthly moviegoer impressions. A 4-week campaign runs between $1,797 and $3,595, placing it in the Tier 2 pricing range of $47 to $60 CPM. For local and regional advertisers, that's a cost-efficient buy in a focused geographic area. Cinema viewers aren't scrolling a second screen or hitting skip. They're in their seats, the lights are down, and your ad is the only thing in front of them.
Real ranges for a 4-week :30 campaign. Final pricing depends on theaters selected, seasonality, and the 2026 film slate.

A 4-week campaign at Tinseltown Salisbury runs between $1,797 and $3,595, depending on the number of screens and frequency. The CPM lands in the $47 to $60 range. That's competitive for a verified, in-seat audience that pays more attention than viewers on digital or streaming platforms.
Tinseltown Salisbury draws an estimated 33,600 moviegoer impressions per month across its 14 screens. This is a recurring audience, not a one-time exposure. Campaigns run on a 4-week cycle, giving you predictable reach and frequency from the start.
Ads run in the pre-show sequence on the auditorium screen before the feature film begins. Every person in that seat sees them, in a darkened room, with no competing noise or notifications. Some packages also include lobby digital screens and other in-theater placements.
Cinema audiences pay 2 to 6 times more attention than live sports audiences, and 6 to 16 times more than social and digital placements. About 60 percent of moviegoers nationally are cord-cutters or cord-nevers. In Salisbury, that means a large share of the local audience can't be reached through traditional TV buys at all.
Common advertisers include restaurants and QSR chains, auto dealerships, healthcare providers, retail stores, and local service businesses. Cinema campaigns have delivered documented results across these categories: a 34 percent increase in auto dealership foot traffic and 53 percent incremental retail visits.
Yes. Alcohol, tobacco, firearms, cannabis, and political advertising are not permitted at this location or anywhere else in the network. Advertisers in those categories will need to look at other channels. All other standard business categories are eligible to run.
