COLLECTING YOUR TICKETS, PACKAGES, and PASSES:
OPEN TICKET SALES
October 28, 2009 – November 3, 2009
These tickets don't require a registration, and the only way to take advantage of them is to show up at the festival screening locations to purchase your tickets. Day-of-show tickets must be purchased in-person; they are not available online. Tickets purchased at on-site box office are CASH ONLY
WAIT-LIST TICKET SALES
October 28, 2009 – November 3, 2009
Is the film you want to see sold out? Each year, hundreds of filmgoers see popular festival films thanks to the waitlist. If the box office has run out of tickets, they will direct you to the waitlist. Starting two hours before the scheduled screening time, you will be able to sign up on the waitlist, one ticket per person present. (Exception: For each theatre's first screening of the day, waitlist numbers will be announced one hour before the scheduled screening time.) Once you have your number, be sure to return no later than 30 minutes before the screening time. At that time, you'll line up according to number, and tickets will be sold in sequential order based on availability. Waitlist tickets are only $15. CASH ONLY.
Be sure to add tickets@saiff.org to your address book or approved senders list to ensure that all e-mails from the South Asian International Film Festival will reach you and not be filtered out by Spam Blockers.
