The festival offers a range of films and events and you can buy a single ticket for any of them.
We offer concessions for all shows, for OAPs, students and claimants please bring proof of your status to obtain your concession. We also operate the CEA card scheme if you require a carer to assist you when attending the festival. Children’s tickets are available for Young Adventurers and Adventure Bites (more details on certification).
This year we are offering 2 discount options for those who want to get the best from the festival weekend and save money.
In Person / Over The Phone: You can buy carnets of tickets in 5, 10 or 15 ticket bundles. When buying your carnet you must book the individual films / events that you would like to attend.*
Online: You can buy a discount card online – this allows you to choos films and events after the time of purchase, but does not offer any guarantee of seats until you have obtained your ticket for each show so please arrive / book early.*
*Both discount options offer a free ticket to the Adventure Bites film loop in the café.
We appreciate that buying tickets for the festival can be a confusing process. Sorry, but it's a complicated event and we tweak it every year to make it more straight forward. If you have any trouble whilst booking, or have any sugegstions on how to improve things please drop us a line.

CERTIFICATION / YOUNG PEOPLE
Most films screened at ShAFF do not have official certification. As such, the local council views them to be suitable only for people aged 18 and over. That said, we have paid for the local council to view certain films in order to allocate their own certification to allow the festival to be accessible by people of all ages. Sessions suitable for children are: Young Adventurers and Adventure Bites. Children will also be allowed into all Live Events and Lectures, but we can't be held responsible for any strong language used.
