Thank you for choosing to be a part of the 10th Annual Cobb International Film Festival. We have an amazing slate of films, panels and workshops planned for you during the festival. A few things to know:

1) Please print out your order/ticket confirmation and bring them with you to the theater OR you can show them on your mobile device if you choose. This confirmation is NOT your actual ticket. When you arrive at the theater, look for the table inside the lobby marked "pre-purchased ticket" to check in and retrieve your wristband. THIS wristband is your actual ticket. Once you have your wristband, you are welcome to come and go throughout the day(s) covered by your ticket(s). If you leave the theater, simply show your wristband when you return.

2) Please plan to arrive at the theater early. The line to check in can be long at times and we wouldn't want you to miss the film(s) you're planning to watch because you're stuck in line.

3) The Strand Theater has a snack bar in the lobby where you can purchase a variety of snacks and beverages - including adult beverages.

4) Your wristband grants you access to all events occurring on the day(s) covered by your ticket - films, panels, workshops, etc. There IS, however, one exception. On Friday just before his presentation, Chandler Riggs ("Carl" from the Walking Dead" will be available in the lobby for pictures in front of the Red-Carpet Step and Repeat. This event is something we're doing to support a charity that Chandler has been supporting for a number of years. We are asking for a minimal donation of $5 to take pictures with Chandler - 100% of this money goes to the Davis Direction Foundation. If you would like to participate in this, simply talk to anyone at the front ticket desk and we will get you set up. [note: you are welcome to provide a larger donation if you choose - we would never turn that down]

5) You can download a digital copy of the festival program on the festival's website: www.cobbfilmfestival.com. Just go to the website and click the "download program" button. This will have the entire festival schedule, descriptions of all the movies and other events, as well as a great deal of other information inside.

6) The Red-Carpet and Awards Program on Sunday evening is open to ALL attendees. If you have tickets that include Sunday, you are welcome to stay and see who receives awards. This event is listed as "black tie optional" - meaning we suggest you dress up BUT it is not required that you do so. We will not turn you away no matter what you are wearing. If you have never participated in a red-carpet event, now is your chance.

Again, thank you for choosing to be a part of the 10th Annual Cobb International Film Festival family. We are looking forward to seeing you all there. We hope you enjoy the program we've put together for you. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at cobbinternationalfilmfestival@gm.com.
