Based on attendance at its U.S. theatres, AMC
enjoyed its busiest pre-Thanksgiving Wednesday, busiest
Thanksgiving Day, busiest Black Friday, and busiest 5-day
Thanksgiving holiday period in the Company’s 104-year history
Friday, November 29 was AMC’s highest total
revenue (admissions plus food & beverage revenue) Friday of all
time, second busiest Friday of all time, and the second-highest
total revenue day in AMC history
AMC Theatres® (NYSE:AMC), the largest theatrical exhibitor in
the United States and in the world, today announced that several
Company records were set during the five-day Thanksgiving holiday
period, as millions of moviegoers in the United States made AMC a
big part of their Thanksgiving holiday plans. In all, 8.8 million
moviegoers attended a movie at AMC Theatres in the U.S. and ODEON
Cinemas internationally during the Wednesday through Sunday
Thanksgiving period.
In the United States, AMC set several new all-time attendance
and revenue records, including:
- Wednesday through Sunday was the biggest and busiest 5-day
Thanksgiving holiday period in AMC’s 104-year history, based on
attendance, admissions revenue, and food and beverage revenue. This
surpassed the previous Thanksgiving records, all set during the
2018 Thanksgiving holiday.
- Friday, November 29, was AMC’s second highest total revenue day
– admissions revenue plus food & beverage revenue – in history
(behind AVENGERS: END GAME opening weekend Saturday, April 27,
2019).
- Friday, November 29 was also AMC’s highest attendance Black
Friday, second busiest Friday in AMC history, and the highest total
revenue on a Friday ever.
- Thursday, November 28 was the busiest Thanksgiving Day in the
Company’s history, based on attendance and admissions revenue.
Moviegoers were drawn to AMC and ODEON by several popular new
films including the opening weekend of MOANA 2, and strong
holdovers from WICKED, GLADIATOR II and RED ONE.
AMC Chairman and CEO Adam Aron commented:
“This 5-day Thanksgiving period in 2024 was one for the ages. At
AMC theatres in the United States and abroad, AMC welcomed more
than 8 million moviegoers from Wednesday through Sunday. In the
U.S., AMC shattered record after record for attendance, admissions
revenue, food & beverage revenue and total revenue. Apparently,
movie fans decided in droves that Thanksgiving dinner is made all
the better when accompanied by some delicious AMC popcorn, an
ice-cold Coca-Cola, and a great film to watch as showcased on AMC’s
huge silver screens.”
Aron continued:
“We send special congratulations to our friends and partners at
Disney on their massive success of MOANA 2. Our continued great
appreciation also goes to Universal for WICKED, Paramount for
GLADIATOR II, and MGM for RED ONE. Beyond these blockbuster movies,
there were so many appealing films – big, medium, and small –
drawing great crowds to our cinemas this holiday period. To see so
many movies continue to succeed in theatres worldwide is a win for
AMC and our shareholders, for our studio partners, and most
importantly for our moviegoing guests.”
