Festival FAQs

I have my pass, now what?

You’re going to the Inaugural Golden Isles Film Festival! Be on the lookout for an email from us once we release tickets for the film screenings come closer to the festival dates.

What is the difference between a pass and a ticket?

Passes offer you exclusive admission to our all of our festival activities (screenings, afterparties, fork & screen, happy hours, etc.). As seats are limited at each venue, tickets are for “booking” your seat at a select screening of your choice. As we near the festival dates, we will announce when tickets are available for each film. Join our mailing list to get notified when tickets go LIVE.

How can I become a vendor?

Fill out the form on our home page for vendors— We’ll be happy to assist you from there.

When and where will GIFF take place?

Our festival dates and location may vary each year, so please check our website and social media channels for updates and announcements regarding GIFF's schedule and location. If you own a venue space and would like to partner with us, please let us know!

Are passes and tickets refundable or transferable?

Our festival passes and tickets cannot be refunded or transferred. If any pass or ticket violates this rule, it will be invalid, and entry to the event will be denied.

What are pop-up events and how much are the tickets?

Join the Golden Isles Film Society for pop-up events such as The Breakdown and Fork & Screen, a drive-in style film screening. Please visit the Society’s website for more info on tickets and dates for these events. (>About >About GIFS)

When can I purchase tickets to the Festival?

Tickets will be available to PASS HOLDERS prior to the general public in advance of the festival dates. Join our mailing list to know when they become available.

How can I get involved with GIFF as a volunteer or sponsor?

We are always looking for volunteers to help with various aspects of the festival, from event planning to ticket sales. If you’re interested in being a part of the screening committee, volunteering for the festival or sponsoring GIFF, please reach out to us by emailing us at info@goldenislesfilmfestival.org or visit our sponsor page.
