How to watch Elemental (2024)

How to watch Elemental (1)

Pixar remains a gold standard for animated movies and has a brand new one in Elemental. The highly anticipated summer movie should be the perfect movie to take kids to, but if Pixar's track record is any indication, it should also have plenty for adults to enjoy as well.

Elemental is set in Element City, where fire, water, land and air residents live together. The story focuses on Ember, a quick-witted and fiery young woman, whose friendship with fun, sappy Wade challenges her beliefs about the world they live in. Elemental is the 27th feature-length Pixar movie.

Here is all the information on when, where and how you can watch Elemental right now.

How to watch Elemental in movie theaters

Elemental is now playing exclusively in movie theaters worldwide. You can find Elemental showtimes near you by checking out your local movie theater's website and seeing if and when it is playing there, or expand your options through Fandango, which shares with you all the theaters and times that Elemental is playing in your area. You can also purchase your tickets directly online through these platforms.

If you enjoy going to the movies but are looking for ways to make the experience more affordable, you should check out our guide for movie theater subscription and membership programs. These offerings, from many US and UK movie theater chains, offer movie lovers discounts on tickets (including the occasional free ticket) or a set amount of movies per month for a single fee.
