How It Works
A Festival Pass is your ticket to explore the 2024 Festival! Come for an evening, a weekend, or every day of the Festival!
Tickets and passes are required to attend most staged, indoor events, but are not required to attend events in The Bays, TIFA Kids events, exhibits and installations, or visits to the Indigo Bookstore. Enjoy these offerings and more for free!
Special events, such as Yuval Noah Harari, Liane Moriarty and The Moth, as well as Masterclasses, are excluded from Pass entry and require a separate ticket purchase.
Ways To Save
Students and youth aged 25 and under save up to 40% on Passes.
Groups can save 25% on orders of five or more of the same Passes*online or through the Harbourfront Box Office.
*The discount does not apply to individual event tickets, masterclasses or student & youth passes.
Questions?
Call the Harbourfront Box Office at 416-973-4000 (select option #1) or contact tickets@harbourfrontcentre.com.
