Ticket or pass holders arriving less than 15 minutes prior to the showtime cannot be guaranteed a seat, even with a ticket or a pass. All sales are final. No refunds, exchanges, substitutions or replacements will be issued.
NEVER QUITE SOLD OUT!
Last-minute tickets—rush tickets—are typically available just before showtime even when advance tickets have sold out. A Rush line will form outside the venue usually one hour before showtime. Approximately ten minutes prior to the screening, available rush tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis to those in line. Rush tickets will only be sold to those actually waiting in line. No discounts, cash only. Rush tickets are not available at the Pacific Film Archive.
SEATING
Patrons must exit the theater after every screening. Theaters must be cleaned and prepared for the next screening.

Priority seating is only given to CineVisa holders and Gold Card holders.
