The theater company has a significant number of locations. They operate around 600 locations across America. Not all locations have a scheduled open date yet. However, many of them do.
Over 100 theaters across the country are getting ready. They are set to open on August 20th. More theaters will follow in the days and weeks after the initial opening.
AMC anticipates a broad reopening. They expect to open at least two-thirds of their theaters by the beginning of September.

AMC closed theater locations in March. This closure happened when the pandemic hit the United States. They haven’t opened any locations since.
Several reopenings were delayed after initial plans. The company originally had plans to open on July 15th and July 30th.
Cinemark Theaters took a different approach. They reopened various locations across the country back in June. They offered lower ticket prices to attract customers.
Cinemark Theaters Reopening With Discounted Ticket Prices
AMC and other companies could have reopened earlier, but there was a big problem. There weren’t enough new movies available to release.
That is all changing now. Several movie titles are expected to be released in late summer and early fall.
One highly anticipated movie is coming soon. The thriller “Tenet,” made by Christopher Nolan, is expected to be released in theaters. Its release date is September 3rd.
While theaters are expected to open as planned, there are changes for moviegoers. There will be precautions and new procedures in place.
If you go to an AMC theater, expect some new rules. You can expect to wear a facemask at all times. You will also see lower attendance because capacity will be minimized.
