AT THE FESTIVAL

Doors open 30 minutes prior to film start times. Concessions are available at each venue, except the American Legion. 

  • Recording devices are strictly prohibited.

  • Late seating is allowed only in very special circumstances. If you have not taken your seat at the event for which you have a ticket reservation by the event's start time, your seat may be given to another person who has waited in the Rush line. 

  • Seat-saving is not allowed. 

  • Ushers may ask you to relocate your seat to better accommodate a full house and last-minute arrivals.  

  • Run times do not include Q&A sessions or introductions. 

  • Children younger than 6 are not permitted at festival screenings. 

  • Films are not rated. Parental discretion is always advised. 

  • All venues are wheelchair accessible.

  • No pets, please. Trained service dogs are welcome. 

STANDALONE TICKETS

  • Available for purchase (cc, cash, check) at Box Office/Hospitality located at Northwind Art Jeannette Best Gallery 701 Water Street

  • Upon purchase, you will receive an email confirmation with a QR code to be scanned at the venue. If you don't have a smartphone, the Box Office can provide you with a paper ticket.

  • Ushers will scan your ticket upon entry to the event or film screening.

  • Go to Box Office/Hospitality to refund or transfer standalone tickets.

RUSH TICKETS

  • Reserved seats that are still unclaimed 5 minutes after showtime may be offered to other patrons if the screening is “Sold Out”.

  • If a screening is “Sold Out”, patrons wanting to get in will be asked to wait until 5 minutes after showtime when the Venue Lead may be able to release some of the unclaimed seats.
