Movie Theater at Aeon Mall Da Nang: Ticket Prices, Showtimes, and Movie-Going Experiences 2026
The theater lights just dimmed, the sofa seats are as smooth as being on a yacht, and the screen turns on with contrast so sharp I forgot I was even in Da Nang. That was my first feeling watching a movie at Aeon Mall Da Nang, and if you’re also looking for a premium theater near the center, read this entire article before booking. I’ll show you exactly the prices, showtimes, and tips that only those who have been there would know.
Which movie theater is at Aeon Mall Da Nang?
Aeon Mall Da Nang Thanh Khe currently has only one movie theater: Galaxy CineX AEON Mall Thanh Khe, located on the 4th floor, No. 46 Dien Bien Phu Street, Thanh Khe District. This is not a regular Galaxy theater; it is Galaxy Cinema’s first premium theater complex in Da Nang, officially opened on July 1, 2026, marking the system’s 30th theater nationwide.
The most special point: Galaxy CineX AEON Mall Thanh Khe is the first theater in Vietnam and the second in Southeast Asia to own a screening room integrating both Dolby Vision (HDR technology with contrast nearly 1,000,000:1) and Dolby Atmos (multidimensional sound). Simply put: sharper images, more immersive sound than regular theaters.
The theater’s design is inspired by the port of Da Nang with navy blue tones, metallic materials, and the ticket and popcorn counters shaped like a ship’s prow. The space is quite “Instagrammable,” making for great photos before showtime.
Ticket prices at Galaxy CineX AEON Mall Thanh Khe
Tickets at Galaxy CineX AEON Mall Thanh Khe start from 45,000 VND (promotional price, usually applied to early screenings or weekdays). The actual price will vary according to:
- Weekdays vs. Weekends/Holidays
- Screening format (2D, 3D, or special rooms like Dolby Vision/Atmos)
- Showtime slots
The most convenient way to book tickets is via the Galaxy Cinema app, or book online via MoMo/VNPAY and then get the code at the counter without needing to print paper tickets. If you register as a G-star member, you can earn points and enjoy special offers for next time.
Reference Showtimes
The theater generally operates between 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM daily, divided into 3 popular time slots:
- Morning session: 9:00 AM – 11:30 AM (usually empty, lowest price)
- Afternoon session: 1:00 PM – 5:30 PM
- Evening session: 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM (busiest, especially on weekends)
Note: specific showtimes change depending on each movie and holidays (please reconfirm on the Galaxy Cinema app or MoMo before going).
Special screening rooms – choose the right room for every need
This is what makes this theater different from regular ones, as each room serves a different type of experience:
- Haatopia: a youthful room with premium leather seats, suitable for watching movies with friends and young groups.
- Cine de Kids: a themed room for families with young children, colorfully designed.
- X-Harbor: the most premium room, with a private Boulevard Lounge, ergonomic sofas with blankets, and the ability to order food/drinks directly at your seat via QR code. More suitable for special occasions (birthdays, dates) than everyday movie watching as the price will be higher.

In general: going with family and young children → choose Cine de Kids; going with friends to see a blockbuster → Haatopia; dating or wanting to pamper yourself → X-Harbor.
In addition to the screening rooms, the theater also has its own food court CineMunch, the children’s play area Cine de Play, and the interactive playground Didim Playground. If you go with the whole family, the children have a place to play while waiting for the showtime.

Real-life experience when watching movies here
- Hours to avoid: Weekend evening sessions (6 PM – 9 PM) are the busiest because they coincide with the shopping and dining hours of the entire mall. Weekday afternoon sessions are much emptier and tickets are cheaper.
- Parking: Aeon Mall Thanh Khe parking lot is spacious, convenient for both motorbikes and cars; take the elevator directly to the 4th floor.
- Combination: Since the theater is located inside the mall, you can have dinner, shop, and then watch a late movie session in the same evening without needing extra travel.
- Pre-booking: For hot movies or weekends, you should book via the app at least a few hours in advance to avoid running out of good seats.
