Regal’s Musical Mayhem series is running all of May 2026, filling the big screen with 28 music-driven films for just $4.99 per ticket. Whether the lineup is classic Broadway adaptations, biopics about real artists, or movies that just happen to have legendary soundtracks, every title is priced the same and ready to be heard the way it was meant to be heard.
Musical Mayhem is a month-long theatrical event at Regal Cinemas spotlighting films where music plays a central role in the story. Tickets for every title in the series are $4.99 and are available now through Regal’s mobile app, at the box office and kiosks, and at REGmovies.com. Regal Unlimited members can use their subscription to cover Musical Mayhem titles at no additional charge.

Regal is adding family films to the Musical Mayhem weekend slate throughout May. Trolls World Tour (2020) screens May 2 and 3, Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile (2022) on May 9 and 10, The Prince of Egypt (1998) on May 16 and 17, and Sing 2 (2021) on May 23 and 24. All carry the same $4.99 admission as the rest of the series.
Advance tickets for Musical Mayhem showtimes are now available for a reduced admission price of $4.99 at theatre box offices/kiosks, on the mobile app, and through REGmovies.com. Members of Regal Unlimited can also secure tickets for Musical Mayhem titles as part of their monthly subscription.
Why This Is Worth Your Time
Five dollars for a film like Singin’ in the Rain or The Blues Brothers in an actual movie theater is a deal that does not come around often. The obvious draw here is the pricing, but the real pull for anyone who loves this genre is the sound design. These films were scored and mixed for big speakers in big rooms, and that is exactly what Regal is offering. If you have been waiting for an excuse to finally see Cabaret or Purple Rain on a proper screen, May is the window.
