How AIFF Festival Passes Work
All-Access Cinema Passes, Filmmaker Badges, and Sponsor Passes give you access to screenings throughout the Anchorage International Film Festival, December 4–13, 2026. All screenings are general admission, with seating available on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to availability.
1. Pick Up Your Pass
After purchasing your All-Access Cinema Pass, it will be ready for pickup 24 hours later at the Bear Tooth Theatrepub Box Office.
2. Receive Your Reservation Codes
Within 24 hours of purchasing your pass, you’ll receive three unique reservation codes by email. These allow you to reserve complimentary screening tickets in advance through our three ticketing partners:
- PAC (Alaska Center for the Performing Arts): Reserve tickets online beginning November 16.
- Elevent: Reserve tickets for screenings at the Anchorage Museum, Alaska Experience Theatre, and E Street Theatre.
- Bear Tooth Theatrepub: Reserve tickets online through the Bear Tooth website under AIFF Tickets, or visit the Bear Tooth Box Office in person.
Simply visit the appropriate ticketing website, select your screening, and enter your corresponding passholder code to reserve your ticket.
3. Attend Your Screenings
You can also attend screenings without advance reservations by presenting your physical pass at the venue, subject to available seating.
We strongly recommend reserving your tickets in advance! All screenings are general admission, and popular films may sell out. An advance reservation is the best way to secure admission, but it does not provide an assigned seat. Arrive early for the best seating options.
Important Reminders
- Your festival pass provides access to screenings, but does not automatically reserve a seat.
- Advance reservations are encouraged, especially for popular screenings.
- All seating is general admission and first-come, first-served.
- Bring your physical festival pass to screenings.
One pass. Ten days. Nearly 200 films. Films Worth Freezing For!
