Frequently asked questions

What does it cost to advertise at the movie theater in San Clemente?

A 4-week campaign at San Clemente 10 at The Outlets runs between $1,181 and $2,362, depending on placement format and screen count. With only one theater in the city, single-theater and citywide pricing are identical. CPM falls between $70 and $85, consistent with the broader Los Angeles Tier 1 market.

Who typically advertises in San Clemente cinemas?

Common advertisers include local restaurants, auto dealerships, real estate brokers, healthcare providers, and regional retailers. With a median household income of $134,735 and a well-educated adult population, San Clemente is a strong fit for premium services, home improvement brands, and financial advisors targeting established households.

Where exactly do ads appear in the theater?

Ads run on screen during the pre-show, before the film starts, when audience attention is at its highest. Depending on the campaign package, placements can also include lobby screens and other in-theater touchpoints. On-screen ads run in a large format with full sound, and the audience has no way to scroll past or skip them.

How does cinema advertising compare to TV or streaming in San Clemente?

Cinema ads outperform streaming, CTV, and social placements on attention metrics, scoring 6 to 16 times higher than social and digital formats. Roughly 60% of moviegoers are cord-cutters or cord-nevers, so traditional television won't reach them. For San Clemente advertisers targeting an older, affluent audience that has moved away from linear TV, cinema fills that gap.

How long does a campaign run and can I target specific films or audiences?

Standard campaigns run in 4-week increments and can be extended to align with seasonal promotions or product launches. You can target specific film genres or release dates to reach families, adults 35 and older, or other audience segments. Alluvit Media handles planning and placement coordination from start to finish.

Are there industries that cannot advertise at this theater?

Yes. Alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, firearms, and political advertising are not accepted in cinema. These restrictions apply across the network regardless of city or theater. Most local and regional business categories are eligible, including food and beverage (non-alcohol), healthcare, retail, auto, and professional services.
