Tickets & Passes
A percentage of each film ticket sold is contributed to the Audience Award cash prize. Look for updates here and in the BendFilm newsletter about when Ticket Sales for the years BendFilm Festival start. If you haven't already, subscribe to the BendFilm newsletter for the most up-to-date news and information.
Passes: The BendFilm Festival is best experienced by purchasing a festival pass, all of which cover the entire weekend from beginning to end and must be presented for admission to the venues and events. As a passholder you are the first one through the theater doors. You must check in at the venue 20 minutes prior to show time. Seats may be available but cannot be guaranteed to pass holders who arrive later than 20 minutes prior to showtime.
Restrictions: Because of capacity limitations seating cannot be guaranteed at McMenamins.
Parties: Wall-to-Wall Access passes include one admission to the BendFilm Feed (Opening Night Party) and the Awards Ceremony. Both parties have a limited capacity and space will be reserved on a first come, first served basis.
