What is the Multi 8 Cinepass? The Multi 8 Cinepass offers flexible access to multiple general film screenings during CinefestOZ, allowing you to create your own festival journey. You can use your included tickets across different sessions—or apply them all to a single film session for a group booking, making the most of the bundled value and built-in discount. 

Can I share the pass with someone else? Multi 8 Cinepasses are typically issued to an individual and are not transferable between people. Always check the terms when booking. 

Do I need to pre-book screenings with my Multi Cinepass? Yes, it’s highly recommended to pre-book your preferred sessions as screenings can sell out quickly. Use your pass to reserve tickets online or at the festival box office. Please visit the HOW TO GUIDE for instructions of how to redeem your tickets. 

Does the Multi 8 Cinepass include access to special events or premieres? No, the Multi Cinepass is valid for general film screenings only. Access to premieres, red carpet events, or special experiences requires a separate ticket or an upgraded pass like the Weekend Cinepass. 

What does the Weekend Cinepass include? All the iconic CinefestOZ Weekend Main events listed below: 

2 x Film Prize Premieres 
2 x In Conversation Events 
Jury Breakfast  
Film Prize Celebration Gala  

The Weekend Cinepass also includes access two general screening tickets of your choice redeemable online once the program is launched. 

Can I choose which general screenings I attend? Yes! The Weekend Cinepass includes two (2) general screening tickets that you can use for any available general sessions across the weekend. These can be booked in advance to secure your preferred sessions, please visit the HOW TO GUIDE for instructions of how to redeem your tickets. 

Are all events catered for? Not all events are catered. The special events such as the Jury Breakfast and Gala Celebration are catered. Full details will be available in the program and online. 

Are buses and travel included? Yes, we provide bus transfers to film prize and VIP events, such as our exclusive Forester wine tasting in the heart of Yallingup. Timetables will be confirmed closer to the festival. 

How do I collect my Cinepass? Once purchased, you will receive instructions on how to collect at the commencement of the festival.

What is the value of buying the Access All Areas Cinepass?  This Cinepass offers incredible value for passionate film lovers who want the full CinefestOZ experience.

Do I need to reserve a ticket for each event/film? No, you can just show up and gain entry using your Cinepass. Your key events will be populated in your wallet once our early program is announced in July. However, you may still need to reserve your seat for some sessions to guarantee entry—especially for high-demand general screening events.
