TICKETS AND PASSES
FESTIVAL PASSES
We offer a wide range of passes for seeing multiple films at LIFF 2026. If you are planning on seeing more than one film at LIFF, passes are the best value way of purchasing tickets.
Most of our passes are shareable and can be used in any combition: e.g., with LIFF EXPLORER 30, one person for 30 screenings, or two people for 15 screenings, or three people for 10 screenings. It's a great way to explore the festival with friends and family, for people who want to share a pass or for individual passholders who want to invite friends to a screening.
You can buy a second pass once you have used up the first one.
Do not purchase a second pass of any type before you have used up all the tickets on the first pass.
Passes will be available to purchase from 1 October when the full programme is revealed online.
You won't be able to book film tickets until 8 October but buying a pass in advance means you have more time to plan your films and are ready to go as soon as tickets go on sale.
