AMC Theaters postpones live concert series as movies enjoy a successful summer start

by · The Washington Times

AMC Theaters will postpone its live concert series due to a stronger-than-expected summer box office, news outlets report.

Ticket sales will not need to be supplemented by the live concert series or other programs because films such as “Backrooms,” “Scary Movie” and “Obsession” over-performed and expected blockbusters such as “Toy Story 5” lay on the horizon. The summer box office is up more than 13% this year over last year.

The concerts were part of a series called AMC Girls Night Live, developed this year in partnership with Arena One. They were scheduled to run June 17-20 featuring Bebe Rexha, Paris Hilton, Kim Petras and Maren Morris.

AMC said the simulcasts will be moved to later this year and customers who already purchased tickets will receive refunds.
