To Purchase Tickets:

Tickets will be sold online through June 1, 2008.  After that, tickets may be purchased on-site. Many screenings sell out early so be sure to purchase your tickets in advance to guarantee your seats.

Tickets will be available for pickup or purchase in person at the Writers Guild Theater June 5-8, 2008 between 10:00 am and 9:00pm; and at the Laemmle Music Hall 3 Box Office, June 4-8, 2008 between 10:00 am and 9:00 pm. The box office will open 30 minutes before the first show of the day and will sell tickets for that day's shows as well as advance tickets for other shows playing at that theatre. All sales are final; there are no refunds or exchanges.

Tickets for screenings at the Writers Guild Theater are cash sales only!  Laemmle Music Hall accepts cash and credit cards.

Admission Policy:
HBFF Pass-holders and ticket holders will only be guaranteed admission until 15 minutes prior to scheduled screening. After this time, remaining seats will be sold to wait-listed patrons and then released to stand-by pass-holders.

Wait List:
If a screening is listed as “Wait List,” it means that tickets are no longer available for pre-purchased. We encourage you to go to the screening venue no more than one hour prior to start time for a “Wait List” ticket. Once all pass-holders and regular ticket holders are seated, tickets will be sold to those standing in the Wait List line.
