Happy New Year! Ring in the new year with a trip to the movies FOR FREE ADMISSION ON US, Under The Lights Entertainment and our incredible area business sponsors! We invite you to see any of the movies showing at The Mariner Theatre on January 24th, 2026 for FREE! (admission is free, concessions are not free)
The feature movie we are expecting is Avatar: Fire and Ash!
ALL movies and showtimes for UTL's Free Movie Fan Night will be announced by the evening of Thursday, January 22nd! The Mariner Theatre opens 30 minutes prior to the first showing.
These free movie day events are put on by Under The Lights Entertainment, with sponsorship support from amazing area businesses and organizations. As 2026 rolls in, we are seeing a rise in our costs, which makes it even harder and quite possibly, impossible to keep putting on these great community events. We would love to continue to put on these events but changes will have to be made for these events to continue. Please keep in mind that even though the movies are free admission for the movies on the days of these events, your admission is paid for by Under The Lights Entertainment with help from our sponsors. We welcome the entire community to join us on these days. At times, these movies sell out and unfortunately, we have to turn people away for those showtimes. We just ask to be courteous to others, whether it would be by scooting over a seat or two so some people can sit in a packed theater or by staying for your entire movie (we understand emergencies do happen).
