Get Ready, Grab Your Popcorn, And Go: Snag Free Tickets To Advance Movie Screenings
So you’re not on Hollywood’s A list… or even the D list. In fact, maybe the only list you’re on is the one that tells you it’s your turn to clean out the refrigerator in the office break room. Don’t worry, you can still feel like a VIP by snagging free tickets to early movie screenings.
Film studios are always looking to give away tickets to their latest productions, to help stir up positive buzz and media interest before a film is officially released. Don’t give a hoot about Hollywood’s list of who’s who. Here are some easy ways you can score free passes to movie screenings…
Listen Up: Radio Giveaways
Radio stations routinely give away free movie passes. If your local station’s website has a VIP member club or rewards program, you might be in luck. Listeners can often collect member points online by following sponsored links or answering trivia questions. Accumulated points can then be redeemed toward a variety of prizes, including movie passes. To stay updated on contests and giveaways, sign up for the radio station’s newsletters.
Check Out PR Firms On Social Media
PR firms are known for offering free tickets, invitations to special events, and great prizes so that they can generate excitement for upcoming movie releases. Allied Global Marketing, the largest of these types of PR firms, offers regular updates on the latest Hollywood news, movie trailers, and hotly anticipated happenings.
