Stanwood, WA gives advertisers direct access to a focused local audience through the Stanwood 5, the city's only movie theater. With roughly 12,000 monthly moviegoer impressions and a median household income of $87,477, this is a community with real purchasing power. A median age of 36 and an average commute of 35 minutes point to a working-adult base that values nearby amenities and local services.
Cinema advertising in Stanwood reaches people who are present, attentive, and already out spending money. As part of the Seattle-Tacoma market, campaigns here are priced in the Tier 2 range, with a 4-week run starting at $642. For businesses targeting Stanwood residents specifically, one theater means your budget goes entirely toward this community, with no dilution across a larger footprint. Five screens give you solid coverage without the complexity of a multi-venue buy.
Real ranges for a 4-week :30 campaign. Final pricing depends on theaters selected, seasonality, and the 2026 film slate.
| Buy type | 4-week cost | CPM range | Reach |
|---|---|---|---|

A 4-week campaign at the Stanwood 5 runs between $642 and $1,284, depending on screen count and placement type. Because Stanwood has only one theater, single-theater and citywide campaign costs are the same. Pricing falls in the Tier 2 CPM range of $47 to $60, consistent with its position in the Seattle-Tacoma market.
Local and regional advertisers in dining, healthcare, home services, auto dealerships, real estate, and retail are common cinema advertisers. National brands use cinema to reinforce broader campaigns at the local level. Stanwood's median household income is $87,477, which makes this audience a natural fit for advertisers targeting homeowners, families, and commuters.
Ads run on screen before the feature film as part of a pre-show program. Placements can also include lobby screens and other in-venue formats depending on availability. The pre-show puts your message in front of a seated audience with no remote control, no skip button, and no second screen competing for their attention.
Cinema attention ratings run 6 to 16 times higher than social and digital formats, and 2 to 6 times higher than live sports. About 60% of moviegoers are cord-cutters or cord-nevers. That means a large share of the Stanwood audience cannot be reached through traditional TV. Cinema fills that gap with documented, measurable attention.
Four weeks is the standard campaign unit and a practical starting point for most advertisers. It aligns with typical film rotations and gives your message enough frequency to register with Stanwood's 12,000 estimated monthly impressions. Campaigns running 8 weeks or longer tend to build stronger recall, particularly for local businesses working to establish name recognition.
Yes. Alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, firearms, and political advertising are not accepted on this network. These restrictions apply regardless of local regulations, so advertisers in those categories are not eligible for cinema placements. For all other industries, content is reviewed against the theater's standards before a campaign goes live.
Call for pricing tailored to your dates, film slate, and targeting.
