How do I buy a ticket?
For those who are familiar with Queer Screen, the process for buying a ticket has not changed – just login to your account and start purchasing!
For those new to Queer Screen, you will need to create a new account and password.
You can even buy tickets from within the Queer Screen app.
All of our tickets will be available within your account to access anytime between the festival dates.
Will QSFF24 have passes?
Queer Screen Film Fest will have many types of passes available for On Demand sessions.
If I have a pass, am I guaranteed an online ticket to every film?
Due to ticketing caps, passes are not a guarantee of a ticket to every film. You will still need to book a ticket to each film you want to see with your online pass—this includes the Online All In Pass. Simply follow the instructions on the receipt and book a spot for the films you’d like to see.
Can online screenings sell out (and why?!)?
Some online sessions may sell out! Why? Well, some films have a limited streaming capacity due to arrangements with filmmakers, sales agents and distributors and the classification board. If you have a pass, please book as soon as you can to avoid disappointment.
Why can’t I watch the full program On Demand?
While Queer Screen is committed to offering a hybrid festival, not all rights holders are willing to permit festivals to include their films as part of the online program.
How are my member benefits changing?
Members still receive discounted tickets for all sessions, including in person and online screenings.
All online screenings are limited to 1 ticket per transaction.
How do I purchase tickets as a gift?
All online screenings are limited to 1 ticket per transaction and each link is unique to your account. To purchase a ticket as a gift, we recommend purchasing a gift voucher.
I love Queer Screen, how else can I support you?
