Join us for the 22nd edition of the Camden International Film Festival from September 17–20 at venues across Camden and Rockland, Maine.

Whether you’re here for the feature films, the shorts, thought-provoking panels and workshops, the Points North Pitch, or the legendary After Dark parties, there’s a pass that allows you to experience CIFF your way. Read about our pass levels or purchase a pass below.

We are NOT offering pre-registration to films this year. This means that passholders do NOT need to reserve tickets to films ahead of time. Instead, simply show up with your pass in-hand at least 15 minutes prior to the listed showtime for admission. Passholders are required to pick up their pass BEFORE attending any films or festival events.

Passes will be available for pick-up the week of the festival at our Festival Hub located at Arctic Tern Sanctuary at 434 Main Street in Rockland.

Festival Hub hours:
Wednesday, September 16th, 3pm–7pm
Thursday, September 17th, 9am–9pm
Friday, September 18th, 9am–9pm
Saturday, September 19th, 9am–7pm
Sunday, September 20th, 9am–5pm
