Landmark Cinemas Canada Celebrates 50th Anniversary Saturday, September 26th With a Special Screening of E.T. the Extra Terrestrial at 1965 Pricing
CALGARY, ALBERTA (MMD Newswire) September 18, 2015 — Landmark Cinemas Canada will celebrate its 50th anniversary on Saturday, September 26 with a slate of celebration activities across all 46 of its theatre locations capped by a special screening of E.T. the Extra Terrestrial for only $1.00 – the price of the first admission ticket sold in 1965.
“When you think about the millions of guests we entertain each year and then multiply that by 50 years, that’s a lot of date nights, first kisses, marriage proposals and Academy Award® movie experiences. It is no coincidence that our mission is to create movie memories that last a lifetime. We know you will remember those events, those characters, those storylines and many more. We want to be a part of that shared experience now and for the next 50 years,” states Neil Campbell, President & CEO Landmark Cinemas Canada.
Brian McIntosh, Executive Chairman of Landmark Cinemas has been with the company for 48 of those 50 years and recalls, “Our company was formed on partnerships and collaboration amongst a group of entrepreneurial “Showmen” that had shared strengths and one common goal – to be one of the best movie exhibition companies in the country and we did just that by listening to our guests and our cast members.”
This is a landmark event for the company and every theatre from western Canada to Ontario and the Yukon Territory will participate by hosting special activities that include contests, instant prize giveaways and coupons, surprise and delights, anniversary cake and more. The special screening of E.T. the Extra Terrestrial will play only on Saturday, September 26th at various show times across the circuit. For exact anniversary celebration times and details please check your local theatre listings at www.landmarkcinemas.com or stay connected with us on Facebook and Twitter.
To celebrate 50 years even more, fifty cents of every $1.00 admission ticket sold for the special anniversary screening of E.T. the Extra Terrestrial will be donated to Kids Help Phone which provides free professional counselling and information to kids in need, 24/7, 365 days a year.
“Just as important as it is to celebrate a milestone anniversary, it is just as important that we continue our local community connection by celebrating together and giving back to a worthy cause,” says Bill Walker, COO Landmark Cinemas. “So join us and be part of our 50 years of movie memories because we wouldn’t be here today without you.”
