Let’s face facts. Getting tickets to any event in New York City—let alone a major film festival like TFF 2015—is a stressful proposition. So at Tribeca we try to streamline the process as much as possible to allow our audiences smooth access to the 2015 Festival.

While Ticket Packages and Festival Passes are currently available (and are the best way to experience the Festival hassle free), individual tickets go on sale on March 31 at 11:00AM for American Express® Card Members and on April 6 at 11:00AM for the general movie-going public.

We will be updating our ticketing guide regularly to keep you informed of all the happenings as they develop here at Tribeca HQ:

Don’t Give Up on RUSH tickets:

If the screening you want is put on RUSH, there’s no need to lose hope! The RUSH system operates as stand-by lines that form at the Festival venue exactly 45 minutes prior to scheduled start time. While there are no guarantees—admittance is based on availability—lucky movie fans in the RUSH lines will be able to buy tickets 15 minutes prior to start time, space permitting. Unfortunately, there is a limit of one RUSH ticket per person.

Ticketing Tips From The Experts:

Treat Yourself to a Festival Pass/Ticket Package: There’s just no way around it. The best way to experience all the delights and revelations of TFF 2015 is to purchase one of our great Festival passes or ticket packages. Click here to see all of our exciting options (including our brand new Spring pass).

Have a Plan B: This is why our convenient Wish List is so cool! Sometimes, events and screenings you want to see become unavailable rather quickly. C’est la vie! Make sure you have options in case your first-choice selections don’t pan out. Your second-choice screening or event could be just as amazing or you could always just try your luck in the RUSH line.

Get There Early: Whether you are a pass holder or a ticket holder, you MUST arrive 30 minutes prior to your event start time to guarantee admission. No exceptions. You can always fool around on social while in line.  

Tickets For Beacon Theatre/TFF 2015 Events: Doc lovers, comedy fans, cinephiles and New Yorkers, pay attention! Tickets for the TFF 2015 Opening Night Gala of the SNL documentary, LIVE FROM NEW YORK!, Mary J. Blige – The London Sessions, Monty Python and the Holy Grail and the TFF 2015 Closing Night celebration of GoodFellas, go on sale on March 23 for American Express® Card Members and on March 28 for general public.
