Single Film Tickets on Sale: January 14, 2026
Be sure or set yourself a reminder because January 14 is the day to lock in those tickets for the films you’ve favorited from the Festival Program Guide! If you haven’t picked all of your must-sees yet, don’t stress! Just be sure you register so you can favorite the films you want to check out. Once that’s checked off your to-do list, you’ll be able to catch as many movies as you’d like.
But remember, there is a limit of 10 Single Film Ticket purchases per screening per person. That’s the case regardless of whether the tickets are for individual use, gift, or transfer. Tickets are nonrefundable, and all sales are final.
Accessing Single Film Tickets before they go on sale to the general public is best, so make sure to join or renew your membership. Members get to purchase Single Film Tickets a few days before they become widely available! Click here to join or renew by January 2, 2026, to take advantage of this exclusive Member benefit.
