SIFF 101

Welcome to the 38th Seattle International Film Festival!
Attending the largest film festival in the country is both exciting and surprisingly easy. Whether you’re new to SIFF or an experienced festival-goer, the information below will help you enjoy SIFF to its fullest potential.

Steps for a SIFFtacular Festival

Pick A Film You'd Like To See
Our Pathways will help you explore films depending on what mood you’re in. Another way to sort through films is by using the SIFFter, available on our website at siff.net, or on the iSIFF app for the iphone.


Purchase Individual Tickets
Anyone can attend a film at the Festival! Tickets for most films are $11, but there are always discounts for matinees, students, seniors, and SIFF Members. If you plan on seeing a lot of films during the festival (and we hope you do), check out siff.net to learn about the perks and discounts of buying passes and ticket packages.

You Can Buy Your Tickets:
  • Online at siff.net
  • By phone at 206.324.9996
  • In person at SIFF Box Office locations


Pick Up Your Tickets
Will Call is available for immediate pick-up. You can pick up your tickets at SIFF Box Office locations (Pacific Place, SIFF Cinema Uptown, SIFF Film Center), at any SIFF venue on days that SIFF films are being shown, or wait to pick your tickets at the venue on the day of show.


Grab Your Popcorn, Sit Back, and Enjoy!
