Classic Cinemas locations in Illinois and Wisconsin are showing family-friendly movies this summer for a great low price! Movies such as Wonka, Migration, Shrek, and more will be shown each Wednesday morning between June 5 and August 7, 2024. Admission is just $2 and the shows begin at 10am (doors open at 9am for fun and games).

You can reserve your tickets in advance, which is a good idea since screenings like this can get very popular at some locations.

Sensory Friendly Screenings Available

In a first that we've ever heard of for summer movie programs, Classic Cinemas is making an auditorium available for each movie that is "dedicated for guests who may need more freedom than a traditional cinema setting allows." The lights will be turned up, the sound will be turned down, and guests will be able to move around and talk if desired. Kudos to Classic Cinemas for offering this great option!
