As the province enters Stage 3 of reopening, our list of summer activities is getting longer. This August, we’ll see restaurants, fitness centres, and other forms of entertainment reopen with restrictions, including movie theatres.
Canada’s largest movie theatre chain is one of the entertainment services that will be reopening. The company made the announcement after movie theatres were given the thumbs up to expand capacity.
Cineplex will be reopening 25 cinemas across Ontario.
Cineplex announced to open select cinemas across the province on Friday after Ontario’s chief medical officer of health gave movie theatres the green light to expand capacity.
Movie theatres are now permitted to have 50 people per screening and multiple screenings in one building at one time. Prior to this, movie theatres were only allowed to have 50 people in the building at a time, which would have meant that many theatres would operate at a loss. The change in restrictions is a huge win for theatres and moviegoers.
To welcome movie lovers back, Cineplex is offering two amazing deals.
For a limited time, you can score movie tickets for select showings and theatres for just $5 and on Tuesdays, movie tickets will run for $2.99. You can reserve your seating online, which will ensure proper physical distancing. Additionally, guests in “communities where it is mandated” will be asked to wear masks for their visit, so don’t forget to bring yours!
Here are some of the Cineplex theatres that are reopening in Ontario:
- Cineplex Cinemas Yonge-Dundas and VIP
- Cineplex Cinemas Yorkdale
- Cineplex Odeon Eglinton Town Centre Cinemas
- Cineplex Cinemas Queensway and VIP
- Cineplex Cinemas Empress Walk
- Cineplex Cinemas Vaughan
- SilverCity Richmond Hill Cinemas
- Cineplex Cinemas Mississauga
- Cineplex Cinemas Winston Churchill & VIP
- Cineplex Cinemas Pickering and VIP
- SilverCity Brampton Cinemas

Attention all movie lovers! If you’ve been missing your nights at the cinema, then this is the news for you. Cineplex has revealed its Canadian reopening plan and we don’t know about you, but we’re counting the days until we can get into theatres.
The company is planning a gradual reopening and it’s reopening six Alberta locations on June 26.
This news is super exciting but let’s not forget about the safety measure that will be put into place. According to The Chronicle Journal, Cineplex will ensure physical distancing between moviegoers with reserved seating as well as staggered showtimes to control congestion in lobbies.
Don’t reside in Alberta and wondering when you can expect to enjoy a film in a theatre? According to a news release, Cineplex is hoping for an early July opening after being closed for three months.
“In all markets where Cineplex is permitted by government and health authorities, it plans to reopen as many of its locations as it can on July 3, 2020 (or as soon thereafter as permitted by law),” reads a release.

With the events that have unfolded over the past few weeks and everything we’ve learnt, it’s more important than ever to keep it up and continue educating ourselves. A great way to do that is to do a deep dive into black cinema to further understand all of the struggles, stories, and experiences. Although we can’t go to movie theatres right now (hello, COVID-19), Cineplex has done us a huge solid by making movies by black creators totally free to rent.
In addition to allowing us to stream these films for absolutely free, Cineplex is covering the royalties themselves, too.
“In a time when many are turning to movies to become informed and empowered, we want to help. This collection of important films was curated to elevate Black stories, artists and filmmakers and spark discussion. These films are available to view at no cost,” reads the company’s website.
Titles available to rent range from The Color Purple, Moonlight, Get Out, Boyz N The Hood, Hidden Figures, Malcolm X, and many more.
To start streaming, all you have to do is create an account and rent your movie of choice for $0. Once you rent it, it’ll be available to watch for two days.

It’s officially cuffing season, the time of year when the weather gets colder and when we leave behind our wild and free-spirited ways of summer in favour of settling down and cuddling up with someone special. But deciding what to do on your date can be tough and going to the same old restaurant everytime gets boring. Whether it’s you’re going on your first date, your 10th date, or your 100th date, getting some fresh and new date ideas can never hurt.
Here are 5 super fun and cozy date ideas that are perfect for fall!
Go Apple Picking
Not only is apple picking one of the more classic fall activities, it’s also an easy and casual date idea. What could be more romantic than strolling through the apple orchards, holding hands with your significant other, while wearing matching cable knit sweaters? Take this date one step further by taking your freshly picked apples and turning them into a sweet baked good. After all, nothing is better than apple pie, especially when it’s made with a secret ingredient — love.
Rent a Cabin for a Cozy Weekend Getaway
Before the crazy holiday season starts with parties and gatherings, take some time for a cozy weekend getaway with bae at a cozy cabin in the woods. The time together away from the hustle and bustle of your day-to-day lives will allow you two to really connect and focus on each other on a deeper level. While you’re there, spend your time cuddled up on the couch, roasting s’mores over a bonfire, and drinking hot chocolate.
Go for a Hike
Get outdoors while you still can without having to pile on a million layers of clothing and take a romantic hike with your boo. The best thing about the autumn season is all the colours of the changing leaves on the trees. So, grab your date and hit the trails to soak in the fresh air and admire that gorgeous view with your date!
Head To The Museum
Fall is known for its chilly and rainy days, but don’t let the weather stop you from leaving the house. Head to one of Toronto’s many museums for a dose of culture and fun day out with your SO. Regardless of what you both are into, you’re bound to find a spot that peaks both of your interests.
Spend An Afternoon At The movies
It’s a known fact that boys have been using movies as an excuse to put their arm around the ladies for years. For days when it’s too nasty and cold to spend time outside, snuggle up with your boo at the movies. Make your date even more special by upgrading to VIP where you get a comfier chair, more room, and in-seat food and drink service!
