All tickets to standard LSC movie events are $3.00 per
person.
But there are many ways to get discounts, and several
places to get your tickets:
Tickets at the door
You can always buy your tickets at the entrance of any LSC events.
They are always $3.00 for admission to any of the standard LSC
movie events. Be sure to get your Movie Card
stamped when you get your ticket.
Ticket sales usually start 30 minutes before the event; so, for
example, sales for a 7:00pm movie will start at 6:30pm.
Tickets for Sneaks
Free sneak previews are usually limited to one showing, since the
movie tends to be an advance preview of shows that are not yet out in
the general market. This also means that lots of people want to see
the show, and therefore that the room gets full really quickly.
Therefore: get there early! The shows are usually at 8:00pm,
and we start to distribute the tickets at around 6:00pm..
Sneaks are restricted to MIT community and their guests. Up to two
tickets will be distributed for each holder of MIT/Wellesley ID while
supplies last.
Due to fire code regulations, once the room is full
nobody can enter a sneak, even though it is free.
Tickets at "The Source"
Now you can purchase all your movie tickets in advance at the
Source. No more waiting in line to buy a ticket. No more worrying about
whether any tickets will be left. When you purchase a ticket through
the Source, you have a guaranteed seat at the showtime you ordered.
Additionally, you receive a stamp on you MovieCard
for every regularly priced ticket purchased.
The Source is located in the Lobby of the MIT Student Center, building
W20, 84 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, MA. The Source is open from 8:00am
to 6:00pm Monday through Friday. You can contact The Source directly with
questions by phone at 252-1994.
Multipass
What do you get with Multipass?
- Purchase your pass in advance for $15.00 and get 6 admissions
for the price of 5!
- can be used up to four punches per film (e.g. for friends)
- does not qualify for Moviecard stamps
The Multipass is available for purchase at all movies at the
ticket counter, in the LSC office (W20-469, if someone is there),
and through the Source.
Movie Card
What the MovieCard does for you:
- Now you can get FREE admissions without having to commit to purchasing a large number of tickets.
- Collect 10 stamps by purchasing regularly priced movie tickets and
redeem the card wherever tickets are sold for a free ticket.
- or redeem 4 stamps for a free medium soda
- or redeem 7 stamps for a free medium popcorn
- Receive a stamp for every regularly priced movie ticket
purchased at The Source or at the door.
- You can get a MovieCard wherever tickets are sold and at the LSC office.
- MovieCards don't expire!
LSC Movie Nights
LSC offers to all MIT living groups and student organizations an
attractive discount program. After coordinating in advance with LSC,
you can hold a Movie Night for your group at any of the movies LSC
shows during the term. You get early admission to the room,
discounted tickets, and reserved seating. You also get the
convenience of paying for the group as a block after the event has
happened. And best of all, the more people you bring, the more you
save!
In general, you need to contact LSC at least a week before the day
you intend to hold the event. You get a 20% discount if more than 20
members of your living group attend, and a 10% discount for fewer
attendees. Of course, LSC reserves the right to refuse to hold a
Movie Night for a given movie, particularly if we expect that movie to
be very popular, or if there are already a number of other groups
holding Movie Nights at the same event.
You need to send a representative to the room at least one hour
before the scheduled showtime, in order to distribute tickets to the
members of your living group, and more if you intend to hold a block
of reserved seats. Furthermore, we don't guarantee admission to
members of your living group, so you should make sure they arrive at
the room well before the start of the show to ensure their place in
the audience.
Like all offers, this one has some caveats and restrictions. Contact
us for the full details of this program.
LSC
reserves the right to deny any Movie Night requests.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us by going to the
Contact LSC webpage.
We hope to see your group at LSC soon!
