General Info & Pricing - Victoria Film Festival

General Info & Pricing

  • Box Office

    Some things have changed and some are back to normal – well except you need to present your vaccination card and ID at all Victoria Film Festival events. Indoor screenings and events require you to wear a mask unless eating or drinking. 

    Once again there will be no in-person sales at the office as we continue to keep you and our team safe. We are happy to say that films will be screened in person as well as online this year. Not all films will be online, and they are noted in the guide.  

    We were lucky to be able to offer an amazing online-only discounted pass last Festival.  This was due in large part because filmmakers and distributors were generous with their works. We did find that streaming costs were shockingly 30% more than all the rental venues and shipping combined from the previous year. So, we are having to charge the same price for in-person and online tickets. Please don’t scream at us too loudly, we are doing the best we can in these crazy times.
