TIFF'08 Pre-Fest Vlog#2 - Picking Up Your Pass Order



Here is my TIFF'08 pre-fest Vlog#2. Discussed is the advance order process, pick up, exchanges, single ticket purchases and more random festival insights

Note from Vlog: When I say "exchange" this includes making selections for if you have any leftover tickets on your pass. For example, if you only got 18 of your 20 picks you can "exchange" the last 2 at the times I say "exchange".

Important Dates:

Monday September 1, 2008 10AM:
Processed advance orders are available for pick up at the Festival Box Office at the Toronto Life Square at Yonge & Dundas. Bring your pick up voucher and any/all things noted in the Vlog.

Wednesday September 3, 2008 at 7AM:
Single tickets for non -Premium screenings go on sale at Festival Box Offices at Toronto Life Square at Yonge & Dundas, Manulife Centre and Roy Thomson Hall. These three box office accept cash, debit and Visa.

Update: Want to know more about the pick up process? Check out this post at TIFF Talk for a detailed description. Also check out their link to TIFF Reviews forum where people have posted screenings they did not get into through the advance lottery process - this is great information to have for planning your back up selections.
