Going to the movies has gotten pretty expensive, we won’t lie, but we still find ourselves going every now and then. We had to go and see Moana 2 in theaters — it really adds to the experience, right?

We keep an eye on all the latest movie theater news since most Disney films are released in theaters before heading to Disney+.

Yes, you can bring ANYTHING. As long as it can hold popcorn, you can bring it. It doesn’t matter how big your bucket or vessel is, they’ll take it — it could be a sand pail, a Tupperware container, a tote…it could be anything, and it’ll be filled for $5! The only requirement is that it just can’t be larger than 400oz (equivalent to 2 XL popcorns).

Additionally, all gift card purchases are 10% off (online only), and if you follow the theater on X or Instagram, you’ll get a chance to win a free large popcorn. If you plan to participate in this fun event, be sure to tag us on Instagram @disneyfoodblog and let us see how creative you got with your container! Personally, you’ll find us pulling up to the theater with our trusty Mickey Balloon popcorn bucket. It’s a classic!
