"After this summer's record-breaking return to cinemas, we wanted to do something to celebrate moviegoing," said The Cinema Foundation President, Jackie Brenneman. "We're doing it by offering a 'thank you' to the moviegoers that made this summer happen, and by offering an extra enticement for those who haven't made it back yet."

More information on National Cinema Day is available on social media using the hashtag #NationalCinemaDay and by visiting your local movie theatre's website.
