Carmike Cinemas was a major American movie theater chain founded in 1982 and headquartered in Columbus, Georgia. Before its acquisition, it was one of the largest cinema chains in the United States, known for operating theaters in small to mid-sized and rural communities. In December 2016, Carmike Cinemas was acquired by AMC Theatres. Following the acquisition, all Carmike locations were either closed or rebranded as AMC Theatres, often under the "AMC Classic" banner, and the Carmike Cinemas brand ceased to exist.

Prior to its acquisition, the Carmike Cinemas menu focused on traditional concessions. Carmike Cinemas competitors were other major national theater chains, including AMC Theatres, Regal Cinemas, and Cinemark. The popular menu items at Carmike Cinemas were popcorn, soda, and candy. Carmike was known for its value-oriented pricing, with ticket prices often being lower than its competitors in major metropolitan areas and offering promotions like discounted ticket days.

What happened to Carmike Cinemas?

Carmike Cinemas no longer operates under that name. The company was acquired by AMC Theatres in a deal finalized in December 2016. Following the acquisition, all active Carmike Cinemas locations were rebranded as AMC Theatres, often under the AMC Classic label to signify a more value-oriented experience, or were permanently closed. The Carmike Cinemas brand and its operations are now fully retired and integrated into the AMC network.


How can I find movie showtimes for my old Carmike theater?

Since all former Carmike theaters are now operated by AMC, you can find all current movie listings and purchase tickets through AMC's official channels. The best way to find showtimes is by visiting the AMC Theatres website or by using the official AMC Theatres mobile app. You can search by city or zip code to find your local theater, which will now have an AMC brand name, and see its complete, up-to-date schedule.

What happened to my Carmike Cinemas gift card or loyalty points?

After the acquisition, AMC Theatres initiated a transition period where valid Carmike Cinemas gift cards could be exchanged for AMC gift cards, and Carmike Rewards points could be converted to the AMC Stubs loyalty program. However, this transition program ended several years ago. As of today, Carmike Cinemas gift cards and any remaining rewards points are expired and no longer hold any value or cannot be redeemed at any AMC Theatres location.

Are the ticket prices and discounts the same as they were at Carmike?

No, many former Carmike locations were rebranded as "AMC Classic" to maintain a focus on value and the pricing structure is now set by AMC. This includes ticket prices, concession costs, and discount programs. While AMC offers its own discounts for students, seniors, and military personnel, and has its own discount days (like Discount Tuesdays for AMC Stubs members), these are AMC's programs and are not identical to the former Carmike promotions.

What about the special formats Carmike had, like the "BigD" screen?

Carmike was known for its premium large-format experience called "BigD." After the AMC acquisition, these auditoriums were integrated into AMC's premium format offerings. A theater that once featured a BigD screen may now have been converted into a Dolby Cinema at AMC, a Prime at AMC, or another one of AMC's signature large-format experiences, depending on the level of renovation at that specific location.
