AMC Theatres Postpones Bebe Rexha, Paris Hilton, Kim Petras and Maren Morris Live Concert Simulcasts, Citing Summer Box Office Rebound

AMC Theatres postponed the planned simulcasts of live concerts by artists including Bebe Rexha, Paris Hilton, Kim Petras, and Maren Morris this week. The decision follows a stronger-than-anticipated performance of several summer film releases at the box office, such as "Backrooms," "Scary Movie," and "Obsession." These films exceeded expectations, prompting AMC to re-evaluate its programming strategy. The company is now prioritizing its core theatrical film offerings, especially in anticipation of major upcoming releases. This shift in focus indicates a strategic adjustment by AMC Theatres to capitalize on the current resurgence in cinema attendance. The postponement affects multiple scheduled concert events that were intended to be shown on AMC's screens across the United States.
