Each level of TIFF Membership will have their own distinct pre-sale day for TIFF 2024, ahead of the public. Specific dates and times for each level can be found here. That means that the higher your level, the earlier your opportunity to buy tickets to the Festival.

As part of TIFF’s annual Early-Bird Pre-Sale, if you join or renew your membership by April 30, you’ll get access to an even earlier window to purchase your tickets during the designated window for your level, ahead of Members who do not take advantage of the early-bird offer.

* Offer Valid for Individual Members and Contributor Circle. Conditions may apply. Please contact membership@tiff.net for further information.

The TIFF Loyalty team keeps you updated about pre-sales, offers, events, and more through Membership emails, including a weekly edition of The Member Close-up and a dedicated version of The Weekly newsletter for Members. Stay tuned for emails from TIFF Loyalty for information about your Membership exclusives and make sure you’re subscribed via tiff.net/subscribe.

Additionally, year-round digital TIFF Lightbox showtimes are updated every Friday via The Weekly newsletter. Keep an eye on your inbox or check out tiff.net/calendar to see upcoming showtimes and your pre-sales on exciting new titles.

To receive your free regular popcorn, please visit Concessions inside TIFF Lightbox and present your digital Membership card and one piece of valid government identification that includes your birthday.

Concessions open approximately 30 minutes before the first public screening and closes 15 minutes after the final showtime of the night begins.
