ADVANCE TICKETS

Day-of-Show tickets for all screenings may be purchased at the individual venues starting 30 minutes prior to the first screening of the day at that venue, based on availability. If a particular screening's allotment of Advance Tickets has been sold out, Rush Tickets are usually available 20 minutes before show time. Please have your membership card and money ready.

What's the best deal for me?

TICKETS are best if you want to keep it simple or just want to attend a few films. Advance tickets guarantee seating up until show time.

ADVANCE TICKET DISCOUNT PACKAGES offer savings and are best if you want to attend many films and are able to decide on most of your titles ahead of time. The more you buy, the better the deal. Advance tickets guarantee seating up until show time.

PASSES are best if you want maximum flexibility to see as many films as possible and don't mind taking your chances on available seats. (If you work during the day, Advance Ticket Discount Packages might be your better option.) Platinum Passes are ideal if you want the best of all worlds, and are willing to pay for it.

The 2008 Visa Advance Box Office is open noon-7pm at the Vancouver International Film Centre for Visa sales. A second Visa Advance Outlet is now open at the Empire Granville 7 Cinemas. Gala packages are also available for puchase at the Visa Charge-by-Phone line (604) 685-8297.
