I can’t make it to a film screening. Can I get a refund on my ticket?  Click to expand/collapse

51Fest tickets can only be refunded in person, no later than an hour before the show’s start. Through July 18, refunds for all screenings must be processed at the IFC Center box office. During the festival, refunds must be processed at the box office of the venue where the screening is taking place, during hours that box office is open. Refunds cannot be given by telephone or online, only in person. Refunds can only be given before a show has begun, not after.
