Information on where and how to find full listings of what's on at the movies today, and in the near future. Where to find out what's showing in Sao Paulo and how to book your seat at the cinema.
There are many cinemas in São Paulo that show foreign language movies. These may be either dubbed into Portuguese or in the original language with Portuguese subtitles.
Children's foreign films will almost invariably be dubbed into
Portuguese. It is usually possible to find a
cinema showing recent releases in their original language with subtitles, at least during the first
few of weeks after release. Programme GuidesCinemas change their programming on Fridays and both the leading newspapers in São Paulo, Folha de São Paulo and Estado de São Paulo publish a weekly events guide called Guia da Semana which is distributed free with the Friday edition. As well as providing a full cinema guide with films, show times and addresses, these guides also provide information on theatre, clubs, children's activities, restaurants, galleries and other events taking place in and around the city. Ticket PricesFull price cinema tickets (inteira) vary in price. Children, students and the elderly pay half price (meia entrada). All cinemas offer special discounts for all sessions on Wednesdays. Cinemas in São PauloThe cinema infrastructure in São Paulo is split into the large US-style cinema chains and the smaller independent movie houses. There are basically two large chains operating in the city, with the majority of their cinemas located in shopping centres: Cinemark and Playarte. These chains tend to present first run features from the USA and the UK as well as the more popular foreign language films from Europe and Latin America.
Some of the independent movie theatres show a mix of both first run feature films and art house films from all over the world, while some specialise in one or the other and there are a few which specialise in the classics. The main cinemas are:
Arts Cinemas
