Movies Showing This Weekend in Pakistan (July 24–26, 2026)

Eight movies are showing this weekend in Pakistan — 152 showtimes across 5 cinemas in Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad. The headline is the same as Monday: The Odyssey dominates with 85 shows, more than every other movie combined. The other headline is ours: this is the first weekend guide with Karachi showtimes in the data. Cinegold Karachi is live on Derooj with 57 weekend shows.

One thing to know before you plan: as of Friday morning, only 5 of the 14 cinemas we track have published their weekend schedules. Cinepax, Nueplex, and Universal typically post closer to showtime. The numbers below will grow through the day — check Derooj for the latest before you book anything.

Movies Showing in Lahore This Weekend

Lahore has 3 movies and 68 showtimes this weekend across 3 cinemas.

CUE Cinemas leads with 36 shows — 26 for The Odyssey, 5 for Carry On Jatta 4, and 5 for Evil Dead Burn. It is the only Lahore cinema with a horror option this weekend, and horror in CUE's Dolby Atmos is the way to watch it.

Cinegold Lahore has 24 shows split between The Odyssey (15) and Carry On Jatta 4 (9) — the most Carry On Jatta 4 showtimes anywhere in the country. Cinestar Township is running The Odyssey only, with 8 shows.

Lahore cinema showtimes this weekend:

No Cinepax listings for Lahore yet this weekend — Packages Mall and Amanah Mall had over 170 combined showtimes on Monday's weekly chart, so expect their weekend schedules to land on the Lahore weekend page soon.

Movies Showing in Karachi This Weekend

This is new. Last weekend's guide said Karachi coverage was coming — it is here. Cinegold Karachi has 6 movies and 57 showtimes this weekend, the deepest single-cinema lineup in the country.

The Odyssey leads with 21 shows. Then it gets interesting: Evil Dead Burn's Adults Only cut has 15 showtimes, and it is playing nowhere else in Pakistan. Minions & Monsters (9 shows) and Moana (6) cover the family side. Obsession — a horror-thriller rated 8.3, the highest-rated film on the board — has 3 shows. And Aag Lagay Basti Mein, the Pakistani action-comedy that ruled the charts back in April, is still hanging on with 3 shows.

Karachi cinema showtimes this weekend:

Nueplex DHA and Nueplex Askari IV have not posted weekend showtimes yet — Askari IV was Karachi's busiest cinema on the weekly chart, so keep an eye on the Karachi weekend page.

Movies Showing in Islamabad This Weekend

Islamabad has 4 movies and 27 showtimes this weekend, all at Cinegold Islamabad.

The Odyssey has 15 shows. Moana has 6 — Islamabad's strongest family option. Carry On Jatta 4 has 3, and Minions & Monsters has 3.

Islamabad cinema showtimes this weekend:

Cinepax Jinnah Park and World Trade Center — which had 120 combined showtimes on the weekly chart — have no weekend listings yet. If Jinnah Park is your cinema, check the Islamabad weekend page later today.

Top 5 Movies This Weekend in Pakistan

1. The Odyssey

85 showtimes at all 5 cinemas with published weekend schedules. That is 56% of every scheduled show in the country this weekend. Adventure/Action/Fantasy, 173 minutes, rated 7.7, all 2D in English.

Week two and it is still swallowing screens whole. CUE Cinemas alone has 26 weekend shows. Cinegold Karachi has 21, Cinegold Lahore and Cinegold Islamabad have 15 each, and Cinestar Township rounds it out with 8.

At 173 minutes, this is an event watch. Book an evening show, plan the whole night around it, and go to the bathroom before it starts. In Lahore, CUE's Atmos setup is the obvious pick for a film this size.

2. Carry On Jatta 4

17 showtimes at 3 cinemas. Comedy, 142 minutes, rated 8.0 — the best-rated wide release this weekend. The Punjabi comedy franchise is a month into its run and still pulling weekend screens.

Cinegold Lahore has 9 shows, CUE Cinemas has 5, and Cinegold Islamabad has 3. No Karachi shows this weekend — Punjabi comedies have always leaned Lahore-heavy, and this one is no exception.

3. Evil Dead Burn

20 weekend showtimes across two listings. Horror/Thriller, 110 minutes, rated 6.8, 2D in English.

The split: CUE Cinemas in Lahore has the standard cut with 5 shows, while Cinegold Karachi is running the Adults Only cut exclusively with 15. If you are in Karachi and want the uncut version, that is your only option in the country. If you are in Lahore, horror with CUE's directional sound is worth the ticket on its own.

4. Moana

12 showtimes at 2 cinemas. Family/Fantasy/Comedy/Adventure, 115 minutes. The live-action Moana is this weekend's family pick outside Lahore.

Cinegold Islamabad and Cinegold Karachi have 6 shows each. No Lahore showtimes yet — if that changes when more cinemas publish, it will show on Derooj first.

5. Minions & Monsters

12 showtimes at 2 cinemas. Animation, 90 minutes, rated 6.4. The shorter, louder family option — 90 minutes versus Moana's 115, which matters when you are bringing kids under seven.

Cinegold Karachi has 9 shows and Cinegold Islamabad has 3.

Full Weekend Chart

Note: ranks 3 and 6 are the same film — Evil Dead Burn's Adults Only cut at Cinegold Karachi and the standard cut at CUE. Combined, it is the clear #2 horror draw. Every showing this weekend is 2D; no 3D screenings are scheduled at any cinema.

Best Movies to Watch This Weekend in Pakistan

• For the big-screen event: The Odyssey. 85 showtimes means you can be picky about the time and the seat. CUE in Lahore for the sound, Cinegold in Karachi or Islamabad for the most local options.
• For families: Moana or Minions & Monsters in Karachi and Islamabad. Saturday and Sunday matinees are the move. Lahore families are stuck waiting for more schedules to post — or take older kids to The Odyssey.
• For horror: Evil Dead Burn at CUE, or the Adults Only cut at Cinegold Karachi. Karachi horror fans also have Obsession — rated 8.3, just 3 shows, easy to miss.
• For Punjabi comedy: Carry On Jatta 4. Rated 8.0 and still going a month after release. Cinegold Lahore has the most showtimes.
• For Pakistani cinema: Aag Lagay Basti Mein is down to 3 shows at Cinegold Karachi. If you have been putting it off since April, this is probably the last call. It is also the only Urdu-language film on the weekend board — The Odyssey's Urdu dub was running earlier in the week, so watch for it to reappear as more cinemas publish their schedules.

How to Book Cinema Tickets in Pakistan

CUE Cinemas — book at cuecinemas.com. Still the best cinema website in Pakistan. With 36 weekend shows across three movies, Saturday evening slots for The Odyssey will fill first.

Cinegold (Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad) — check cinegold.pk for booking, or buy at the counter. Gold, Red, and Platinum seating tiers; the Platinum lounge is worth the upgrade for a 173-minute film.

Cinestar — the app works better than the website (cinestar.com.pk). Township has 8 shows of The Odyssey this weekend.

Cinepax — nothing listed for the weekend yet. When their schedules post, Bookme.pk is the smoothest way to book any Cinepax location.

Nueplex — no weekend listings yet either. Their own site (nueplex.com) handles booking once shows are up.

Five cinemas on the board now, more coming as schedules publish through Friday. The full picture — every cinema, every showtime, all three cities — is on Derooj.
