The health and safety of our audience and staff is the highest priority for us, especially as circumstances surrounding COVID-19 continue to evolve. Through close consultation with medical and public health officials, we are announcing the San Diego International Film Festival’s COVID-19 Safety Policy for attending a screening or an in-person event.

All attendees will be required to present proof of vaccination as “Fully Vaccinated” OR a negative COVID-19 home test taken within 72 hours of the event. If neither can be provided then a mask must be worn at all times during the festival events & screening venues.

To gain admittance, all attendees will be required to present a photo ID and proof of COVID-19 vaccination status or negative COVID-19 test results at Box Office Check-In.

Acceptable proof of COVID-19 vaccination or test is ONE of the following:

1. The physical COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card issued to the patron at the time of vaccination or negative results of the COVID-19 home test

2. A photograph of the individual’s COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card or negative results of the COVID-19 home test; or

3. A digital record of the COVID-19 vaccination or negative COVID-19 test results. All residents of California may request a digital vaccination record at www.myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov.

4. If neither can be provided a mask will need to be worn at the physical events & screenings.  

If you have any questions, please email info@sdfilmfest.com
