We have brought in a solidarity-based pricing system!
We want to give as many people as possible access to our film festival, regardless of their budget. That's why we have been offering a solidarity pricing system since this year. There are three price categories for single tickets and the festival pass, and two price categories for group tickets. You do not have to provide proof for any of the price categories, so you can decide for yourself what price you can or would like to pay for your festival visit. (There is only one price category for the Young Film Festival and for some events in the side program).
Tickets by ticket type
- Single Tickets
- The basic ticket costs 8 euros and is a reduced price category for people on a budget. No proof is required; anyone can choose this category.
- The standard ticket costs 12 euros.
- The solidarity ticket costs 14 euros. With this ticket you subsidize the basic ticket and thus enable visitors with a small budget to participate in our festival.
- Festival pass
