Use of festival pass
The festival pass is personal and gives free access to all the films during the festival, but tickets have to be collected before the screenings. Screenings may be sold out, so it can be a good idea to book tickets well in advance. It is only possible to collect one ticket per screening.
If you have a festival pass and can’t come to a screening you have booked tickets for we encourage you to return the ticket to the cinema. In this way someone else will have the opportunity to take your place. Many of our screenings are sold out, and we do not wish to have empty seats at sold out screenings.
Refunds or exchange of tickets
We follow the cinemas’ guidelines for refund and exchange of tickets. Contact the cinemas:
Age limits

Accessability
