You Asked, We Delivered: NYAFF Festival Passes!
For years the constant refrain from the NYAFF audience has been, “We want to buy a festival pass.” Unable to deal with the pressure, this year we finally cracked: festival passes are now available for one and all. We understand that movies are expensive, so we want to help you get into our shows for less money.
There are two ways to get discounted shows at this year’s New York Asian Film Festival.
1) The Subway Matinee Six Pack
For only $49 you can buy a six pack of tickets at the box office. You give them $49 and they will hand you a ticket that you can trade in for SIX TICKETS to any matinee shows (shows that start 5pm or earlier, from Monday through Friday). You have to trade in all six tickets at one time, and you can use them for six different shows, or bring 5 friends and use them for the same show. What this means is that you’re paying around $8 per ticket instead of $11.50.
2) The Subway Matinee Screening Pass
For only $99 you can go to the box office and get a magic ticket that lets you into all 27 weekday matinee shows. All of them. That’s something like $310 worth of tickets for only $99. All you do is flash your pass and we let you in. We’ll even give you a special pouch so you don’t lose your pass (because if you lose it, you’re screwed). Plus, flash your pass and you’ll get one free popcorn at every screening, and you’ll get a free Subway Cinema NYAFF t-shirt. Even better, your name is not on the pass, so if you’re not coming to the matinees one day then loan your pass to a friend and let them attend the movie in your place.
You can buy the six-pack and the pass at the IFC box office, or you can buy them online. Because online ticketing is wonky, it’s a little weird to get the pass and the six pack online, but just follow the link below and it’ll take you to a page where you can buy them (each ticketing page for every single movie has the Six Pack and Pass options on it. Weird, right?).

This is our way of saying, “Thanks!” for your support.
