Choose Your Fest Experience
Which pass is right for you? Every festival-goer fests differently. Longtime film fans and local cinephiles often dive in headfirst, catching as many films as the schedule allows. Others prefer to dip in and out, mixing in other weekend activities alongside their film viewing. However you like to fest, we’ve got a pass or ticket option to help you enjoy the Film Festival at your own pace.
