The reservation system is an online application that has been tailor-made for visitors of the Bratislava film festival based on the Inviton ticketing system. It shall be available to all holders of accreditations and festival passes and shall allow them to reserve tickets to any screening throughout the festival from the comfort of their homes. It allows any holder to keep the maximum of 5 active reservations at any given time. As soon as the earliest booked screening begins, the system automatically makes room for a new reservation.

 

The reservations may be placed from computers at the festival’s registration spots, i.e. the Accreditation Centre or the box office of each participating cinema theatre, as well as online via link that shall be available at the festival’s official website on Thursday, November 9. The reservation applies to a particular screening but not to a particular seat at the cinema theatre. Seat numbers at participating cinema theatres do not apply for the festival.

 

Before you start using our reservation system, you are required:

 

• to register with the reservation system through their unique e-mail address and a password of their choice
• to visit the Accreditation Centre where you must pick up and thus activate your accreditation card or your festival pass, which will subsequently serve as your pass to select festival screenings

The reservation system allows you:

 

• to place and cancel your reservations to individual screenings
• to keep track of all films you have already seen
• to keep track of your active reservations

The reservation cannot be made in the following cases:

 

• if entry to the given screening is free
• if your accreditation or festival pass currently keeps 5 active reservations
• if there is less than 30 minutes before the beginning of the screening you want to book
• if seats reserved by accreditation or festival pass holders exceed three quarters of the total capacity of a given cinema
• if you are a holder of the guest accreditation, which entitles you to see 5 screenings, and you have already seen all five
• if your accreditation or festival pass is invalid at the time of screening

Please take your seats not later than five minutes before the reserved screening begins. All reservations that are not used by this point shall be cancelled and the remaining free seats will be made available to other festival-goers.

 

The final five minutes before an unsold-out screening begins, holders of accreditations and festival passes will be able to enter the screening without a reservation, until the point of filling the cinema theatre’s capacity.
