Toronto International Film Festival Tickets

A wonderful wakeup

Scotiabank Theatre Cinema 10 - Toronto

I caught an early morning showing of 'The Penguin Lessons'. The energy of the volunteers, so early on a Sunday morning, put me in a great frame of mind. The lineups were well-organized and I absolutely loved the movie. The audience was very in to it, too. I was especially touched, though, by the willingness of complete strangers to trade seats in the theatre with other patrons who needed more leg room. It was so nice to see such cooperation.

Great stars/red carpets. Pls Bring back paper programs!

Scotiabank Theatre Cinema 2 - Toronto

I was only able to catch three movies this year, but enjoyed all three. I noticed there were lots of music biopics, which I quite enjoyed. Always love the pedestrian part of King Street on the first weekend, wandering around to see who is coming and going on the red carpets and people watching. My main complaint this year is access to information on the schedule and movies. I find it so much easier to be able to look at a calendar on paper to scan what's on which days, what time. Also to see listings of movies by categories, countries and genre. I found it very frustrating only being able to see a list of movies on my small phone screen when trying to decide what to see when and where. Please bring back a basic paper calendar and listing! I don't want to carry around a large book and pay a lot of money for one one. I love the last minute standby options too. Looking forward to next year, my 25th attending!

Good festival, short-sighted cash system.

Roy Thomson Hall - Toronto

It’s always a pleasure to be able to take part in TIFF, but the fact everything has become cashless makes it less accessible, and leans into the “white privilege/elitist” accusation I kept hearing thrown around about the festival this year. There are people who still receive at least part of their income in cash - I happen to be one of those people - a lot of us also work schedules that are all over the place, making it difficult to get to the bank in time or, frankly, making it difficult to go out at all. I wanted to buy a bottle of water for the movie because I had just come from work and didn’t have time to eat or drink and was thirsty, but - because I was wearing one of those ridiculously tiny purses that are the only things presentational enough for a gala event such as I was attending and because I had just thrown some cash in thinking that would be fine, I had to drink from the tap in the bathroom because actual money wasn’t welcome at the festival - not an amazing experience.

All around great experience!

Scotiabank Theatre Cinema 14 - Toronto

I really appreciated that we were able to purchase our seats via Ticketmaster. Also loved all the venues where TiFF films were screened.

Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara

Scotiabank Theatre Cinema 4 - Toronto

Saw the movie. Very good but chilling and concerning. Gives you an idea of what those in the public eye go and have gone through. For those who are unfamiliar about this, Tegan Quin had her account hacked and the hacker then pretended to be her to their fans. The movie gives one some perspective not only from Tegan but also the fans. Highly recommend watching.

A fantastic time

TIFF Lightbox Cinema 1 - Toronto

A ton of cool movies and a great community! It was my first year and it definitely will not be my last.

The best film festival in the World!

TIFF Lightbox Cinema 1 - Toronto

The best film festival in the World! Great way to watch movies and all the staff team is so friendly.

Great Experience

Visa Screening Room at Princess of Wales Theatre - Toronto

They were able to move the lines along pretty quickly for us to go to the theatre and see out film. We also had comfortable seats for us to view the film.

Excellent event as usual.

Scotiabank Theatre Cinema 6 - Toronto

Chose to watch 10 movies with my spouse this year. The buying process, yet again, was changed from the previous year. Once I got past that, this year, all tickets were for a reserved and numbered seat. That meant you did NOT need to line-up like in previous years, to get a good seat. All myt seats were not perfect, but they were reserved! Its up to you to pick good movies from the TIFF list and descriptions, and that is the fun of going to the festival. Discovering a new director, or seeing the movies from a new country.

Best film festival

Scotiabank Theatre Cinema 1 - Toronto

Met Rebel Wilson. Most helpful staff and volunteers ever! So we'll organized. So easy to get to everything. One of the best experiences of my life.
