LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — AMC Theatres is reopening it doors on Aug. 20 and will celebrate its history with a throwback to the year it all started by offering "Movies in 2020 at 1920 Prices."
Upon reopening, moviegoers can again enjoy the magic of the big screen at 1920 ticket prices. For one-day-only, on Aug. 20, all tickets at AMC will be priced at 15 cents (plus sales tax).
Two AMC Theatres are reopening in the Las Vegas valley -- AMC Rainbow Promenade 10 and AMC Town Square 18.
This is part of a phased plan to reopen AMC in the United States. AMC currently expects to open approximately two-thirds of its more than 600 U.S. theatre locations in time for the September 3 release of Warner Brothers’ TENET, following Disney's Aug. 28 release of THE NEW MUTANTS. The remainder of AMC’s U.S. theatres will open only after authorized to do so by state and local officials.

AMC is also offering an array of $5 food and beverage treats, including regular popcorn, regular Coca-Cola Freestyle drink and KidsPacks, through the end of October. And all AMC Stubs members will earn double points on all ticket and food & drink purchases through the end of October.

AMC Safe & Clean components include significant reductions in the maximum tickets available for each showtime and seat blocking in reserved seating auditoriums to allow for appropriate social distancing between parties, enhanced cleaning procedures that include extra time between showtimes to allow for a full, thorough cleaning and nightly disinfecting utilizing electrostatic sprayers, use of high tech HEPA vacuums, upgraded air filtration efforts including the use of MERV 13 filters wherever possible, new guest and associate safety protocols that include mandatory mask-wearing by all guests and associates, hand sanitizing stations throughout the theatre and the availability to guests of disinfectant wipes. The entire AMC Safe & Clean plan can be found at amctheatres.com/amc-safe-and-clean.
