Tips for Attending

  • Book your film screening tickets and workshop spots in advance to secure your place.
  • Arrive early for panel discussions as seating is limited and popular sessions fill quickly.

  • Check the daily schedule online to plan which films and events you want to attend each day.

Practical Information

Light, breathable clothing is recommended due to Boracay’s tropical climate. Since the festival is indoors, consider bringing a light jacket or sweater as air conditioning may be strong. It’s best to book accommodation and event tickets early, as January is a popular travel period. Carry a reusable water bottle and stay hydrated throughout the day. Charging devices and portable power banks are useful to keep your electronics running during workshops and screenings.
