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.

Common advertisers include quick-service and sit-down restaurants, auto dealerships, healthcare providers, local universities, retail stores, and financial services. Cinema's documented lift data, including 34% increased foot traffic for auto dealers and 53% incremental retail visits nationally, makes it a strong fit for businesses that depend on local customer acquisition.
Your ad runs on screen as part of the pre-show program before the feature film. Every person in that auditorium sees it on a full cinema screen with surround sound and nothing else competing for their attention. Lobby digital displays and other in-theater placements may also be available depending on the location.
Cinema audiences pay attention at 2 to 6 times the rate of live sports viewers and 6 to 16 times the rate of social or digital media viewers. About 60% of moviegoers are cord-cutters or cord-nevers, so TV and streaming ads miss most of them. Cinema reaches those people in a single, undivided viewing session.
Most campaigns run in 4-week flights, matching standard movie release cycles and giving your ad enough repeat exposure across Waco's estimated 48,000 monthly impressions. Brands tracking outcomes typically see measurable lift within a single flight. Multi-month campaigns compound awareness and recall from there.
