Cinemark’s ‘Bring You Own Bucket’ Day Back for National Popcorn Day 2026 in January

Cinemark is happy to let popcorn gluttons indulge in their favorite snack again with 2026’s BYOBucket event on January 18 and 19.

BYOBucket 2 encourages popcorn fans to bring their own “bucket” (400oz or less) for a $5 fill-up including new co-sponsor Lowe’s 5-gallon blue bucket.

Please remember that all buckets must be clean and sanitized for use, and guests who bring in the Lowe’s bucket must utilize the provided food-grade liner, as the blue buckets are not suitable for storing food (who knew!).

In the same vein, Cinemark reserves the right to refuse any bucket deemed unsanitary or a potential health risk.

As part of the event, fans will also save 10% off online gift card orders and can also check Cinemark’s IG and X for a chance to win a free large popcorn.

Stay tuned to Conskipper for all of your movie and popcorn news.
