A ticket to the movies will cost just $2 at Regal Cinemas this summer, depending on the showing.

Starting May 23, discounted family-friendly films will show Tuesdays and Wednesdays at participating Regal Cinemas nationwide, according to the theater’s website.

Select titles will be $2 for the first show of the day as part of the chain’s “Summer Movie Express” series. The deal is scheduled to run through Sept. 6, but some theaters will only offer it during the summer break set by local school districts, Regal said.

This year, families can see more than a dozen previously released titles,including “How to Train Your Dragon” (2010), “Sing” (2016) and “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” (2022).

Showings and availability may vary by location, so parents are encouraged to check show times before heading to the theater.
