Planning a screening at the 31st Busan International Film Festival? Sales begin at 2 p.m. Korea time on September 17 or 21, 2026, depending on the program. General screening tickets cost KRW 10,000 each, with a limit of two tickets per screening code.

The two sale dates are easy to confuse, and even returning ticket buyers must register again and complete mobile phone verification.

A practical check before booking

  • Register again: Use a verified mobile number and a six-digit numeric password, even if an account was used last year.
  • Prepare the browser: Chrome with pop-up blocking disabled is recommended. Simultaneous booking through multiple devices, browsers, or tabs under one account is restricted.
  • Read the schedule codes: GV means a guest visit, KE indicates Korean and English subtitles or dialogue, and KN can include non-English dialogue without English subtitles.
  • Review cancellation costs: From two days before the screening until 60 minutes before it starts, fees are KRW 3,000 for most tickets and KRW 9,000 for ceremony tickets—even when canceled immediately after booking.
  • Open the actual ticket: Screenshots and booking notifications are not accepted for admission.

 

Who should check BIFF conditions first

The festival runs October 6–15, 2026 (South Korea), around the Busan Cinema Center and other Centum City venues. Anyone relying on English should verify subtitle notation and whether a GV offers interpretation. Visitors aged at least 65, people with disabilities, and national merit recipients can receive a KRW 3,000 discount after the required documents are verified; the support desk serves eligible visitors for general screenings held that day or the following day.

Today, check the official screening schedule, record the date and screening code, then prepare registration and mobile verification. Consult the original article on Injoys for the full booking and arrival checklist.
