Refund Policy: Buying a True/False Film Fest pass is, in part, a commitment to supporting the long-term survival of Ragtag Film Society. Before ticket reservations open in February, we can refund 50% of a pass purchase. No refunds will be issued after reservations have begun for your pass type. If the festival is canceled due to factors outside of our reasonable control, 50% of the pass price is non-refundable. Refunds will not be given for ticket purchases online, at the box office, or via the Q.

Prior to attending, please plan to review the festival health policies. We follow Boone Co./Columbia Health Dept. & CDC Guidelines, and precautions are re-evaluated regularly.

TIPS FOR PURCHASING PASSES

We recently adopted a new ticketing system to improve some things, including offering digital ticketing options, so if you haven’t attended recently, you might see some different words like “membership” instead of “passholder” or “member number” instead of “purchase code”. But in practice, the functionality is very similar, and we’ll continue to give passholders step-by-step details for making ticket reservations.

All passholders will be sent detailed information about how to reserve tickets with their passes. The program announcement and ticket reservation schedule is as follows, and all ticket reservations open at 6PM CST on the dates listed
