What is General Admission? What is VIP?
There are 3 ticketing options for access.
VIP Package is for 3-day festival goers. You get a box seat and some super cool swag.
Single Day VIP is for someone who is going to fest for one day with us, but wants to get into after-parties OR have a floor-level seat. You can buy multiple day Single Day VIP if you want.
Single Day GA is the most affordable option - you can pick your seat in the balcony and still attend all film screenings, masterclasses and screenplay salons on the day(s) you choose to attend.
