Membership

The CIFF47 Membership Program features four different levels of access and benefits for all of your film festival needs: a ticket buyer level, a streaming passholder level, an in-person passholder level, and a premium passholder level that includes all-access to both in-person screenings during CIFF47 at Playhouse Square (March 22-April 1, 2023) and online streaming during CIFF47 Streams (April 2-9, 2023). Don't miss a thing by joining today!

NEW THIS YEAR

The first step in purchasing or renewing a CIFF47 Membership is registering for a new CIFF Eventive account. New for CIFF47, all CIFF patrons using the CIFF website or placing orders through the CIFF Box Office will need to register for a new CIFF Eventive account***. Your previous membership login credentials on the CIFF website (from 2022 and prior) are no longer active. However, you can use the same email and password as your previous CIFF membership login to register for a new CIFF Eventive account.

***Please note: Eventive account credentials are universal across all film festival websites powered by Eventive. If you already have an Eventive account from another film festival’s website, you do not need to register for a new account, simply log into the CIFF website with your existing Eventive account credentials.

Membership Policies & Guidelines

  • Please log in to your CIFF Eventive account on clevelandfilm.org to ensure access to your membership benefits and discounts. If you do not have your CIFF Eventive login information, please click "Forgot Your Password?" on the Login page to reset your password.
  • Your Membership Order Confirmation will be emailed to you within minutes of purchase. Your CIFF Membership Welcome Letter will be emailed to you within a week of purchase.
  • CIFF Memberships are annual and only valid for one Festival cycle. The majority of members will be issued a renewal date one year from the time of their membership purchase. However, CIFF Memberships will not be issued for two Festival cycles. As a result, CIFF Memberships purchased in March and April will be issued a renewal date at the end of February for the following year.
  • CIFF Memberships are per individual. CIFF Memberships and membership passes cannot be shared with other individuals. Members in violation of this will have their membership revoked without a refund.
  • CIFF Memberships are tax-deductible to the maximum amount allowed by law unless otherwise noted. CIFF members receive goods and services in exchange for their membership contribution, the value of which often exceeds their contribution, depending on the level of use. With the exception of members at the VIP Passholder level, it is up to the individual to determine the tax-deductible value of their contribution based on their individual level of use.
  • By purchasing a membership to the Cleveland International Film Festival (CIFF) you agree to adhere to the CIFF Code of Conduct. Failure to observe organizational policies regarding member conduct at CIFF events and screenings may result in the termination of your membership without a refund.

Any geo-restrictions on CIFF47 Streams films will be noted on the film’s description page.
