Thousands of free cinema tickets for new Christmas film in Glasgow

Glasgow families will be able to grab free cinema tickets next month, with Cineworld’s across the city opening up the offer as families feel the strain of the cost of living crisis.

On December 3 the new feature film Why the Nativity will premiere, with the film’s maker offering up 25,000 free tickets for families to head to their local cinema. The hope is for a free festive day out, as well as a chance to learn about the Christmas story.

The film brings the story of the nativity to life, telling the birth of Jesus and Mary and Josephs journey to Bethlehem.

A local church leader said: “This is such an exciting opportunity for families in the local community to come together to start their Christmas celebrations.

“Going to the cinema can be out of reach for many families because of pressure on family budgets so the fact that this is free makes it really appealing.”

Turning Point Ministries, who made the film, say the historic presentation is accompanied by stunning visual dramatics that follow the unforgettable journey of the first Christmas story. Audiences are ‘transported back in time’, with the sights and sounds of the tale.

Families can book their free tickets and find their local cinema here.
