Seattle is one of the most educated, high-income urban markets in the country. Median household income sits at $121,984, and 67.5% of residents hold a bachelor's degree or higher. The audience walking into a Seattle movie theater skews professional and financially capable. That matters when you're deciding where to put your ad budget.
Alluvit Media places advertising across 4 theaters and 47 screens in the city, reaching an estimated 112,800 moviegoer impressions each month. You can start with a single-theater test at Meridian 16 or run a citywide campaign across Pacific Place 11 and Thornton Place with IMAX. Either way, you're reaching people in a lean-back, phone-down environment that consistently outperforms streaming and social on attention metrics. Seattle's median age of 35.5 and average commute of 26.6 minutes point to a busy, mobile population that treats scheduled entertainment as a priority. Cinema puts your brand in front of them at that moment.
Real ranges for a 4-week :30 campaign. Final pricing depends on theaters selected, seasonality, and the 2026 film slate.

Choose what fits your campaign — on-screen, in-lobby, and digital extensions.
Your brand opens the show
Plays early in the pre-show sequence, before trailers begin. Best for awareness and reach.
Peak attention, before the trailers
Plays in the mid-pre-show pod when theater attention peaks. Our most-requested slot.
The last ad before the feature
The premium position — the final commercial before the feature begins. Highest recall, unskippable.
Digital signage throughout the theater
Full-motion placements on lobby plasma displays. Extends brand presence beyond the auditorium.
Retarget moviegoers on CTV and OTT
After cinema exposure, retarget the same moviegoer audience across premium streaming services using verified attendance data.
Banner & mobile reach for your moviegoers
Display and mobile ad retargeting to the verified moviegoer audience. Geo, demo, and behavior layers.
A single-theater, 4-week campaign in Seattle starts at $770 and goes up to $4,108 depending on the theater and screen count. A citywide campaign across all 4 theaters runs $6,034 to $12,069 for 4 weeks. Seattle is a Tier 2 market with CPMs ranging from $47 to $60, a reasonable rate given the area's audience income levels.
Healthcare systems, financial services, local restaurants, auto dealerships, universities, and retail brands are among the most common cinema advertisers. The format has a documented track record with these categories: national lift studies show a 34% increase in auto dealership foot traffic and 53% more incremental retail visits. Seattle's high-income, educated audience makes it a particularly strong fit for premium and considered-purchase brands.
Ads run on screen as part of the pre-show sequence before the feature film begins. The format is full-motion, full-screen, with surround sound in a darkened auditorium. No other ads share the screen at the same moment. Depending on the theater and campaign package, some placements also include lobby digital screens and other in-venue formats.
Cinema attention ratings run 2 to 6 times higher than live sports and 6 to 16 times higher than social and digital platforms. Seattle has a large cord-cutting population, so a significant portion of the moviegoing audience is either hard or expensive to reach through traditional broadcast. Cinema closes that gap without the clutter or skippability of streaming pre-roll.
Yes. Alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, firearms, and political advertising are not accepted in the cinema advertising network. These restrictions apply regardless of local laws. If your business falls into one of these categories, cinema placements are not available. For all other industries, content is reviewed for appropriateness before being approved for in-theater display.
Alluvit Media estimates 112,800 monthly moviegoer impressions across Seattle's theater footprint. Nationally, the cinema audience skews younger than most media, with a median age of 30, 62% multicultural viewers, and 60% who don't subscribe to traditional cable. In Seattle, that adds up to a concentrated, diverse audience that's largely out of reach through other channels.
