50% off Buzzy Summer Cinema Screenings

“Half Off Tuesdays” Opens at ArtsQuest’s Frank Banko Alehouse Cinemas 

Bethlehem, Lehigh Valley, PA, June 23, 2025 –  ArtsQuest is thrilled to announce a brand-new discount for film lovers across the Lehigh Valley. Beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, June 24, the Frank Banko Alehouse Cinemas is unveiling its “Half Off Tuesdays,” a discount day where anyone purchasing a movie ticket online (no code required) or at the box office for a showing on a Tuesday gets their ticket 50% off all day long. This new, accessible way to see movies on the big screen is designed to make moviegoing more enjoyable and more affordable. *Sale price before taxes and fees.

This new discount launches at the Frank Banko Alehouse Cinemas alongside indie darlings like “Materialists”, directed by Celine Song—Oscar-nominated for Past Lives—and “The Phoenician Scheme”, the latest from art-house favorite and Oscar winner Wes Anderson. And for the first time ever, you can catch them for half price every Tuesday. 

It’s also a great way to catch action-packed summer blockbusters like “F1: The Movie”—opening June 27, directed by Top Gun: Maverick’s Joseph Kosinski and starring Brad Pitt—and “Superman”, opening July 11 and directed by James Gunn—all for a fraction of the price.
