Wexford cinema offers incredible deal to counteract Monday blues

Blue Monday – dubbed “the most depressing day of the year” – is getting a much-needed
makeover at The Arc Cinema….

On Monday 19 January 2026, cinema lovers can enjoy every film, all day long, for just €6.50 per ticket, saving of more than 50%.

The concept of Blue Monday was first introduced in 2004 by psychologist Cliff Arnall, who
identified the third Monday of January as the gloomiest day of the year. Factors such as cold weather, post-Christmas debt, failed New Year’s resolutions, and low motivation, all
contribute to the mid-winter slump. But instead of giving in to the gloom, The Arc Cinema is
inviting everyone to turn it into the most entertaining Monday of the year.

Films being showing on the day include the critically acclaimed Hamnet, fresh from winning two Golden Globe awards, brand-new 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple starring Ralph Fiennes, Jack O’Connell and Cillian Murphy, as well as popular titles such as Marty Supreme and The Housemaid. With plenty more films screening throughout the day, customers are
encouraged to visit ArcCinema.ie for full listings and to book tickets.

Declan Kelly, Cinema Manager at The Arc Cinema, said:

“We’re delighted to bring back our Blue Monday promotion at The Arc Cinema. With €6.50 tickets for all films, all day, it’s the perfect way to turn what’s often labelled the most depressing day of the year into something genuinely enjoyable. We’re passionate about creating memorable experiences for our customers, and there’s no better way to do that than through the shared joy of cinema. Grab your friends, book your tickets, and let’s make Blue Monday a day to smile about.”
