Ticket Packages

CineVoucher 10-Packs are valid for regularly priced Festival screenings. Redemptions are based on ticket availability, so redeem your CineVouchers early (members may begin redeeming CineVoucher 10-Packs on March 28). Here’s how it works:
• CineVoucher 10-Pack purchases are limited to two per person (dual members may purchase four).
• CineVoucher 10-Packs may be applied to one film, a few films or ten films.
• A CineVoucher does not grant access to films; it must be redeemed for a hard ticket.
• To redeem a CineVoucher, provide the 16-digit account number printed on the front of the voucher when prompted online, by phone or in person at the ticket outlets.
• CineVouchers must be redeemed at least one day prior to the screening you wish to see.
• CineVouchers cannot be redeemed in person at the Castro, Clay or Pacific Film Archive Theaters. In order to redeem CineVouchers for tickets to films at these venues, place your ticket order online, by phone or at the Main Ticket Outlet before the close of business the day before the screening.
