Free Holiday Movies kick off this Monday at the Palace Theatre

The M&T Bank Holiday Movie Series presented by Wainschaf Associates kicks off this Monday, December 11 with a free screening of “The Muppet Christmas Carol”. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, we are once again able to offer these events FREE OF CHARGE! The M&T Bank Holiday Movie Series presented by Wainschaf Associates is one of several free and low-cost programs offered by the Palace that positively impacts local children and families in our community each year.

For each movie, doors open one hour before showtime and each event will have unique activities, giveaways and surprises. With the kids out of school, ‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie’ Family Fun Day on December 27 will have an hour of crafts, face painting, games and educational activities by the Palace Theatre and Ten Broeck Mansion before the movie starts. For all movies, we will be giving away One (1) $50 Downtown Albany Gift Card courtesy of the Downtown Albany BID as well as other prizes.

“At M&T Bank, we are inspired by opportunities to make a difference in people’s lives — and often, it is simple acts of kindness and generosity that spread the most joy and instill hope within our communities,” said Charles Pinckney, M&T Bank Regional President for the Capital Region. “The M&T Bank Holiday Movie Series removes all cost barriers and invites families into the Palace Theatre completely free of charge to create joyful memories with the people they love the most. During this special time of year, M&T Bank is grateful to partner with the Palace Theatre to uplift our Capital Region community with a series of heartwarming movies that will be accessible to all families.”
