Documentaries are for everyone. Click here to find out about our access offers and provisions for our screenings and events.
Through flexible ticketing, tailored support, and inclusive events, we work to reduce barriers to participation, creating spaces where film and art can be shared, experienced, and brought to life for all.
DocsForAll concession tickets
All DocFest events available for online booking will include a limited allocation of DocsForAll tickets, priced at just £3 (plus booking fee).
These tickets are designed to make the festival more accessible, offering reduced-price entry to anyone who may not be able to afford a full-price ticket. The scheme operates on a trust basis, so no proof of eligibility is required.
DocsForAll tickets are available across all events taking place from 10 - 15 June. As availability is limited, we recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.
Tickets are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. A maximum of 2 tickets per person applies.
