Are you on the hunt for a fun, budget-friendly summer activity in Columbia? Do you have any movie lovers in your family? Both Regal Movies and the Town of Blythewood are hosting summer movie events that your whole family will love! Below we’ve got the details on where you can see movies for $2 or less this summer.
Let’s Go to the Movies!
It’s no secret that taking your family to the movies can be quite expensive – the tickets, popcorn, drinks, and candy all add up QUICK! Maybe you’ve even got a toddler or two that you’re just not sure are ready to make it through a whole movie in a crowded, evening theater, but taking them during the day or even to an outdoor venue might seem a little more manageable! This summer we found great options to not only make going to the movies cheap but also fun and memorable for your whole tribe.
