The average cost of going to the cinema in the U.S. rose to $8.61 in the second quarter of 2015, the highest average ticket price to date.
It’s a 3.36 percent increase from 2014’s Q2 average of $8.33 and beats 2013’s second quarter record-high of $8.38.
It’s also up from Q1 2015, which was $8.12. The increase is due to a big summer chock-full of 3D films and the growth of premium large format theaters.
