TICKET PACKAGES
CineVoucher 10-Pack
$90 members, $115 general public

- CineVoucher 10-Pack purchases are limited to two per person (dual members may purchase four).
- CineVoucher 10-Packs may be applied to one film, a few films or ten films.
- A CineVoucher does not grant access to films; it must be redeemed for a hard ticket.
- To redeem a CineVoucher, provide the 16-digit account number printed on the front of the voucher when prompted online, by phone or in person at the ticket outlets.
- CineVouchers must be redeemed at least one day prior to the screening you wish to see.
