What you get:

Each participating venue receives one NICE Indie Cinema Passport in the mail. This card includes the name of your venue and the venue’s membership renewal date as expiry.

You may share the card amongst your staff. There is no cap on usage per year. The card can only be used in person at the box office, not online. 

Cardholders receive 1x free ticket to “regular screenings” at participating NICE venues. The definition of “regular screenings” is totally up to the participating venue.

Reasons to participate:

This is a wonderful perk you can share with the movie-lovers on your team who will want to discover other cool cinemas across Canada, and will be especially fun to use when traveling. 

This is a great way to incentivize other NICE members to engage with your venue! Get those NICE tourists in your door, and don’t forget to say hi.

This is inspired by the very successful CICAE card. All members of CICAE are granted one card, which gives access to all CICAE cinemas worldwide. That’s over 2,400 cinemas!

What you give:

Your box office staff should be trained on the NICE Indie Cinema Passport and be able to share tickets on request. (They will also be able to borrow and use the NICE Indie Cinema Passport!)
