Do you require proof of vaccination to attend in-person screenings?

Your safety is our top priority. Masks must be worn inside all SFFILM Festival venues. 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). We are monitoring city public health guidelines and recommendations regarding COVID-19 and may update safety protocols as needed leading up to the screening.

We require proof of “up-to-date” vaccination and a photo ID at the door.

  • For patrons under 5 Proof of a negative test taken 48 hours in advance allows admission to this event.
  • For patrons 5-11 “up-to-date” means completely both initial dosages of the Pfizer vaccine.
    For patrons 12-17 “up-to-date” means receiving a third dose of Pfizer 6 months after completing the initial series of vaccines.
  • For patrons 17 and over “up-to-date” means receiving a booster 5 months after completing the initial doses of Pfizer or Moderna or 2 months after receiving the Johnson and Johnson dose.
