Archived  I'm 17 and taking my 16 (she looks younger though I don't know if that will be a problem) year old friend to see this is the end. Our theater checks your age at the ticket counter but I'm not sure if they check your age if you already have the tickets. This thread is archived New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast level 1 I used to work at a cinema and on occasion when we showed R rated movies we would quite often stand someone at the entrance and look for people obviously under the age. We would refuse entry and refund tickets if they couldn't show ID. My best tip for you to smuggle your underage friend in is to enter as late as possible. level 1 At the theater I go to (an AMC), the "pre-ordered" tickets you print out at the theater are a different color than the ones you buy at the counter. If you have one of the printed tickets, the person who takes the stub is supposed to ID you. If you have one of the tickets from the front desk, they assume you've already been IDd from when you bought the ticket. level 1 Depends what theater, but you can get a guardian to check you in and they leave. Once a booking has been confirmed online, you can access your tickets in store either physically or digitally.
It’s super easy. When you get to the theater, you can walk directly up to the ticket attendant (aka ticket-taker) and scan your QR code from your phone—no need to print anything. QR Code Issue If you’re having trouble accessing your QR code, you can provide the ticket attendant with your ticket ID/confirmation number and they’ll be able to access your order. You can find this information in your confirmation text or email. Example: Thanks for using Atom! Your order is confirmed: 2 tickets for Toy Story 4 at Cinemark 18 and XD at 06:05 PM, 06/26/2019. Just scan your QR code or use confirmation # 10851277901111 at the theater to redeem your tickets.

Look for the Atom Concessions Pick-Up signs near the concessions counter. Just walk directly up to the counter and scan your QR code to pick up your concessions order*. That’s right—VIP service. If you use the Atom Tickets app, make sure to enable location services and push notifications. When those are turned on, you’ll receive an alert when you’re close to the theater within 30 minutes of showtime that asks if you’d like the theater to start preparing your concessions order. Just hit “yes” and your goodies will be ready for pick-up before you even reach the concessions counter. Like magic! *At AMC Theatres, your QR code will not be scanned when you pick up concessions. Instead, look for the designated pick-up area or signage to retrieve your order. If necessary, give the concessions attendant your confirmation # to assist with locating the order. Concessions Seat Delivery If you pre-ordered concessions from a theater that provides seat delivery service, just scan your ticket, head into the theater and find your seat. The concessions counter will automatically be notified of your arrival when you scan your movie ticket, and they’ll deliver your concessions directly to your seat. + Can I find out which movies will be playing at Grand Cinemas in advance?Yes, check out the Coming Soon section of our website to see when movies will be released. Sessions times are posted on the Grand Cinemas website by Tuesday evening for the week commencing the following Thursday. + What is a Dolby Atmos?Dolby Atmos creates powerful, moving audio by introducing two important concepts to cinema sound: audio objects and overhead speakers. Together, these completely change how soundtracks are created and heard. Dolby Atmos soundtrack brings alive the onscreen story as never before possible. The movie's sounds flow all around you to completely immerse you in the action, heightening the impact of the story and creating a powerfully moving cinema experience. Each leather seat is wider and has more legroom than a standard session giving a more luxurious feel when watching the latest blockbusters up on the big screen! + Do you have special screenings for mums and bubs?Yes we do! On every Wednesday morning outside of school holidays we have a morning session advertised as Bubs in the session times and also listed under the Movie Clubs tab. There is a special discount rate for Mums on these sessions so check out the Bubs Club page for all the details. + Can I buy tickets online?Yes, tickets can be booked online through our website, although this must be done at least three hours prior to the commencement of the session. + Can I buy tickets in advance for Grand Cinemas?Once session times are listed on our website, tickets can be purchased from the box office in advance of the film's opening. We recommend for the most popular films, during the weekends and holidays, that you plan to arrive 10-15 minutes prior to the advertised start time or drop in during the day and purchase early. + How old do you have to be to watch an MA15+ rated film?If you look close to 15 years old our staff will ask for photo identification to check that you are old enough to view an MA 15+ film. As the Classification Board states MA15+ films are not suitable for people aged under 15 years. A person aged under 15 cannot be admitted to an MA 15+ film unless accompanied by his or her parent or an adult guardian. The requirements are not met if the parent or adult guardian buys a ticket, but does not accompany the child in the cinema for the duration of the film. Also to note an older sister or brother does not count as a parent or adult guardian. + Does a ticket ensure a seat reservation?Tickets are sold and patrons seated on a “first-in, best dressed” basis. We recommend you arrive 10-15 minutes before start time so you can select your favourite seat. + Can I purchase gift vouchers for Grand Cinemas?Absolutely! Grand Cinemas offers Adult, Child & Senior Gift Vouchers as well as 3D gift vouchers for Adults and Children.

Grand Cinemas do not accept any Greater Union/Event Cinemas gift vouchers.

This restriction will not apply to the entire season of a film. If a voucher or pass is not valid for NO FREE TICKET movies it will be stated in the conditions on the back of the pass. Check our programme for the NO FREE TICKETS schedule to ensure you will not be disappointed. + What does BARGAIN DAY TUESDAY mean?On Bargain Day Tuesday all tickets are just $13 each, or $16 for 3D films. + How long will a movie play at Grand Cinemas?The length of time any film will play at Grand Cinemas is based on the amount of business the film generates, contractual obligations and time of the year. Basically, the more popular a film is with patrons, the longer it will play. There is no way to predict exactly how long a movie will play. Use our website to get information on what films will be playing up to five days in advance. Do they check ID at cinemas?Our staff are legally required to ask for proof that you are old enough to watch an age restricted film if they have any doubt. In order to prove your age we require official I.D. that includes a photo and date of birth such as a passport or driver's license.
Do they check your age for R rated movies?Not all ticket types are available for all performances. Children under age 17 requires an accompanying parent or guardian (age 21 or older) to attend R rated performances. 25 years and under must show ID for R rated performances.
Do you need ID for a 12 movie?A spokesman for Cineworld said: “In line with the BBFC age classification, we reserve the right to ask for photo ID verifying the age of any customer wishing to watch 12A, 15 and 18 certificated films. “If a customer is unable to provide ID when asked, we are required by law to refuse admission to that film.
