A show is AT RUSH when all advance tickets have sold out. Rush tickets may be available just before showtime, and sometimes as part of the daily Noon Ticket Release. A rush line will form outside the venue 30-60 minutes before the screening starts. Once all ticket and pass holders are seated, any empty seats will be sold on a first-come first-served basis to those in the rush line, one ticket per person waiting in line at the time of admission. Rush tickets are not available at BAMPFA.
