TORONTO — Cineplex Inc. says its box office revenue for June totalled $51.8 million, marking the first quarter since 2019 that it topped $50 million in each month.

The movie theatre company says a steady stream of blockbuster titles, combined with strong demand for its premium formats drove sustained attendance and revenue growth throughout the quarter.

The result for June was up from the $51.4 million the company took in at the box office in June 2024.

Cineplex says the results for June were helped by the strength of the live-action adaptation of How to Train Your Dragon and F1: The Movie.

Box office for the second quarter as a whole totalled $158.5 million, up from $114.5 million in the same quarter last year.

Cineplex has 172 movie theatres and entertainment venues across Canada.
