SFFILM recognizes that public health guidelines are constantly evolving and we may update safety protocols as needed leading up to and during the Festival. Your safety is our top priority and while we are working closely with the San Francisco Department of Public Health, our policies may not always align with SFDPH guidelines.
MASKS
Masks must be worn inside all SFFILM Festival venues when not eating or drinking. When at a screening, masks may only be removed when actively eating or drinking once seated. Masks must be worn in theater lobbies and restrooms.
VACCINATIONS
We require proof of vaccination and a photo ID at the door. Photo ID is not required for children under the age of 18.
For patrons under 5: SFFILM requires proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken within one day (for antigen tests) or two days (for PCR tests) before entry into the venue. Self-attestation may not be used to verify a negative test result, even when using over-the-counter (or at-home tests). All at-home tests require a third-party, such as a telehealth organization, to verify the results via video call.
For patrons ages 5 and over: “full vaccination” means you have completed the initial series (2 doses) of Pfizer or Moderna or received the one dose of Johnson & Johnson.
An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public space where people are present. By attending the 65th San Francisco International Film Festival, you expressly agree to comply with all rules and safety guidelines put in place by the event organizers, and voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19, waiving all claims and potential claims against the event organizers and their affiliated companies relating to such risks.
