How to get cheap Cineworld tickets
The best way to score cheaper tickets is by opting for off-peak time viewings. You can get two-for-one cinema tickets on Tuesdays and Wednesdays with Meerkat Movies, tickets for Movies for Juniors start from only £2.50. If budget is a priority, we recommend sticking with the 2D viewings, and not special formats like IMAX and ScreenX, as these viewings tend to be more expensive. Remember to use a Cineworld discount too!
Cineworld refund policy
While Cineworld tickets are non-refundable, there is one exception. You have the option to cancel your ticket and receive a refund if you do so at least two hours before the scheduled viewing. You are unable to cancel or request a refund after the viewing, even if you haven’t collected your tickets.
