New York Film Festival will be held September 26 - October 13, 2025. Tickets go on sale September 18th to the general public at 12pm ET, with pre-sale periods September 2-16th. The only way to get pre-sale access for Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere (Spotlight Gala) is to become an FLC member. There are no refunds or exchanges on ticket purchases.
All venues at Lincoln Center are on the same block so you can pack your schedule with back-to-back screenings as long as you have 15-20 minutes to get to the next screening. Q and A's that occur after screenings will be included in the price of your ticket. Additional in-person appearances will be added as they are confirmed.
Screenings will start at listed times so it is recommended to get there 15 minutes prior to showtime. There is no dress code but dressing to impress adds to the step and repeat at select venues that will capture your festival experience.
Food and drinks will be available in the Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center at Cafe Paradiso. Concessions including popcorn, candy, soda and beer will be at the Walter Reade Theater and Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center. Quick bites between screenings will be Cafe Paradiso, Gourmet Garage, The Casbah, Dig Inn, Le Pain Quotidian, Sweet Greens, and Rosetta Bakery.
