Tickets

Ticket Options

SINGLE TICKETS are best if you want to keep it simple or you just want to attend a few films. Simply search the film guide and select your films. More

TICKET PACKS offer savings and may be the best if you want to attend at least 10 evening films and are able to decide on most of your titles ahead of time. The more you buy, the better the deal. More

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. More

PLATINUM PASSES are ideal if you want the best of all worlds including guaranteed seating in the reserved section. More

VIFF Memberships

You must be age 18 or older and a member of our registered non-profit society to attend most films at VIFF.

Why? Because most of the films we screen are unclassified (not rated) and, under B.C. law, in order to see unclassified films you must be a registered member of a film society.

A VIFF membership is only $2, and is good for the whole festival. You must show your membership card at every screening. If you have forgotten your membership card, you must purchase another membership in order to be allowed into the theatre.

Films Classified for Youth

VIFF does seek classification for as many films as possible to enable minors (under 18 years old) to attend. Nearly 30 excellent films were classified last year and we’ll aim for a similar number this year. Classified films will be listed under Films for Youth.
