ALL ONLINE PASSES & TICKET PURCHASES: please print out the Paypal receipt and bring it to the theater with you. We DO NOT ship tickets out, they are all picked up at the festival's box office.

Online Ticket & Pass sales have ended. Tickets & Passes may be purchased at the festival's box office at the Canal Place Theaters (333 Canal St.).

The theater seats 290, so there is very little chance that we will sell out seats... but the passes ONLY GUARANTEE a seat up until 15 minutes before showtime, they are then given on a first come, first served basis. If you arrive with less than 15 minutes to showtime, and there are still seats available (as there will most likely always be), you will be given a seat. Our goal is always to fill the theater up as much as possible as we have filmmakers coming from around the world to screen their films here and we want the turnout to be good.
