National Popcorn Day is Monday, January 19, 2026, and it’s a popular event at movie theaters, for obvious reasons. One National Popcorn Day deal has been announced, and we expect more to be announced soon!
We have a big day-by-day list of food, drink and restaurant deals in the Charlotte area, so if you’re feeling hungry, check it out! We update it every day.
Regal
On January 19, 2026, dress up in your favorite costume and head to a Regal near you to score a FREE large popcorn. Come prepared to tell the person working the concession stand who you’re dressed as.
AMC Theatre
For National Popcorn Day, AMC Theatre is focusing on its AMC Popcorn Pass. The pass costs $29.99 plus tax and offers 50% off a large popcorn every day through the end of 2026. We’ll update if any additional deals are announced for National Popcorn Day.
Cinemark
Cinemark once again has a big National Popcorn Day deal. On January 18 and 19, 2026, Cinemark will load “your bucket” with popcorn for just $5 at participating locations. (Select locations will also offer kettle corn.)
Your container can be up to 400-oz. That’s equivalent to two (2) XL popcorns.
All containers must be clean and sanitized before use. Cinemark will also provide a complimentary food-grade liner for all popcorn fills.
Limit one fill-up per person.

Check back soon to see if Cinergy Entertainment is offering a National Popcorn Day deal. 5336 Docia Crossing Road, Charlotte, NC.
Double-Check Before You Head Out!
We make every effort to make sure that everything on Charlotte on the Cheap is 100% accurate.
However, sometimes things change without notice, and we are not always notified. It’s also possible that we can make a mistake.
Please verify all deals and events with the venue or organizer before you go.
