About Tickets

Membership is required

Under British Columbia law, film societies may only show films to members, and members must be 18 years of age or over.

You must show your membership card at the door.

Ticket Prices

Regular Members: $10 per film

Sustaining Members: one ticket per film is included in annual membership.

Advance Tickets

Members may buy advance tickets via credit card. (Instructions below.) Advance ticket holders must arrive at least 10 minutes before the screening to be guaranteed a seat.

GIBSONS: Advance ticket sales are cut off at midnight the night before a screening. We sell a maximum of 120 advance tickets for the 146 seat theatre. We recommend advance tickets as the theatre is often near capacity.

SECHELT: Advance ticket sales are cut off at 2 pm the day before a screening. We sell up to 200 advance tickets for the 274 seat theatre.

At the Door Tickets

The remaining tickets are available to members at the door for CASH ONLY. (Free for Sustaining Members.)

Refunds not Available

Please note that we are not set up to issue refunds. If you have bought an advance ticket and cannot attend a screening, please contact membership@scfs.ca at least 24 hours in advance and we may be able to switch your ticket to another screening, depending on availability.
