This post is in partnership with Marcus Theatres.
I won’t lie, one of the things I missed the most over the crazy last few years is going to the movie theater. Sure we started getting movies sooner at home with streaming, but it just isn’t the same without those big comfy lounge chairs and fresh buttered popcorn! And I know the boys agree because they ask at least once a week when can we go see a movie at Marcus Theatres!

But you’re in luck because Marcus Theatres is BRINGING IT this holiday season with so many fun movies, promos, events, and gift ideas! We went last weekend to see the new Clifford movie and had the best little Sunday Funday! Brandon and I are also hoping to sneak out for a date night in the next few weeks because we are both so excited about the holiday retro series and seeing Christmas Vacation on a big screen.
Lets’s break down everything Marcus Theatres has to offer right now!
Holiday Classics Retro Series
This is such a fun way to see all the classic holiday movies! Brandon and I will definitely be going to see Christmas Vacation and I think the boys would love to see The Polar Express! The best part is tickets are only $5 + tax! Here’s the schedule this year:

New Movie Releases
By day three of Christmas break I know we will all be climbing the walls already, hah! Luckily there are a few new movies we haven’t seen yet and a few more coming soon! Here’s a quick list of the newest movies:
Encanto – out now! I can’t wait to take the boys to see this one!
West Side Story – out December 10
Spider-Man: No Way Home – out December 17
Sing 2 – out December 22 – this one is high on our list of things to do over break!!
American Underdog – out December 25 – you know everyone in STL wants to see this one!

Holiday Gift Ideas
Marcus Theatres gift cards are such a good gift idea for pretty much anyone! Think teachers, teenagers, kids, grandparents, and more, everyone loves going to the movies! Plus with giving gift cards you don’t have to worry about them not arriving in time for Christmas because you can either send an e-gift or buy them at the theatre!
Now through January 2 you can save 15% on your gift card purchase of $25 or more!
And it doesn’t have to be a $25 gift card, you could get three $10 gift cards, five $5 gift cards, etc. Those $5 cards would make great stocking stuffers.

I’d highly recommend this app to anyone going to the movies.
