Refunds or exchange of tickets

If you wish to exchange or refund tickets, you must do so directly with the cinema from which you purchased the ticket. Purchased tickets are generally not refundable, but you can exchange them for a different screening if done in advance. This must be done in person at the exhibition venue.

If you want to know more, take a look at the refund and exchange policies on the websites of Vega Scene and Nordisk Film Kino.

Refund and exchange for those with a festival pass

If you have a festival pass, we kindly request that you exchange your ticket if you're not going to use it. This way, others can have the pleasure of using your seat. Many of our screenings may sell out, and we don't want to have empty seats in sold-out screenings.

Seating

There are unnumbered seats during this year's festival. That means you can sit wherever you like in the auditorium when you arrive. It also makes it easy to attend the festival with friends without having to buy tickets simultaneously.

Age Limits

All films screened during Oslo Pix have age limits. You can read about them on the film pages on our program site. Parents can bring children that are up to three years younger than the age limit on films screened during the festival. The minimum age limit of 18 years is however absolute and not subject to exemptions. Information about age limits in general can be found at Medietilsynet.

Digital festival pass

Watch as many films as you want during this year's festival. There are only 150 festival passes available.

How do I use my festival pass?

The festival pass is personal and gives free access to all the films during the festival, but tickets have to be collected before the screenings. Screenings may be sold out, so it can be a good idea to book tickets well in advance. It is only possible to collect one ticket per screening.

if you have a festival pass and can’t come to a screening you have booked tickets for we encourage you to return the ticket to the cinema. In this way, someone else will have the opportunity to take your place. Many of our screenings are sold out, and we do not wish to have empty seats at sold-out screenings.

You can only retrieve one ticket per screening and the festival pass can only be used by one person.
