The Melbourne International Film Festival is one of the most popular events in Melbourne. It is held over three weeks in July and August every year.
Founded in 1952, the film festival is one of the oldest in the world and one of the most popular of the country’s four major film festivals.
Melbourne International Film Festival 2025, MIFF Dates & Ticket Prices
This festival is celebrated throughout the city, with films shown in various venues throughout the CBD. Some more popular venues include the Forum Theatre, the Australian Centre of Performing Arts, the Victorian Arts Centre, the Wheeler Centre, Kino Cinemas, and the Village Roadshow Theatrette.
Tickets can be purchased for individual events/shows, or you can buy a Share Pass that gives you access to 12 shows, a Discovery Pass that gives you access to 6 shows, or a MIFF Passport that gives you access to all shows.
The festival also honours entrants by awarding the event’s best documentaries, fiction and feature films.
I am Miff member and i paid for a passport for the 2020 MIFF , which as we know didn’t eventuate, so will I be receiving a free passport for the 2021 MIFF and will my membership carry over until 2022 instead of 2021 ?
Hi Robert,
I have to say it was really hard to find any information on their website about this.
Having gone through the last year’s worth of Facebook posts, i did see a statement on April, 7 2020 (https://web.facebook.com/MelbIntFilmFest/posts/10158427391510039), which they state:
“All memberships purchased this year will be valid through to 30 August 2021, so you’ll be able to access all your member benefits at MIFF 2021”.
I am not too sure of the process of how this happens, but they did suggest to another person to email [email protected] with their membership number if they had any queries.
Thanks
Michael
Hi, Can you please tell me when “The Family” is screening, I heard the director on the ABC talking about it sounded good. Cheers
