Practical information and FAQs

Your FAQs: How to navigate the festival smoothly and happily:

  • I've arrived in Jihlava, what do I do now? Upon arrival in Jihlava, visit the Accreditation Centre (Theatre Café, Horácký divadlo Jihlava, Komenského 22). Here you can collect your festival pass, programme brochure, accommodation voucher and have the opportunity to buy festival merch.

    • FRI 24 OCT – SAT 1 NOV / 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM
    • SUN 2 NOV / 9:00 – 3:00 PM
  • Have you bought a festival pass but can't make it to the festival? Although we do not refund money for purchased accreditations, you can transfer your accreditation to anyone else. In this case, please contact us at akreditace@ji-hlava.cz: we will need to know which email address you have registered your account with and to whom we can transfer your accreditation.

  • What does a screening marked Ji.hlava Accessible mean? Information about screenings for parents accompanied by children or for people with disabilities can be found here.
  • Is it possible to buy a ticket for only one screening? Yes. A separate ticket for a specific screening will be available for 220 CZK at the Infopoint on Masaryk Square. Tickets can only be purchased for a given day. A separate ticket also serves as a reservation for the selected screening, but please make sure to arrive in plenty of time so that we can ensure a smooth check-in of all spectators. These tickets are not valid for Catch-Up screening.

  • Can I attend a screening without a reservation? Yes. If you have a festival pass, you can stand in the queue before the screening without a reservation and wait to see if there is an available seat in the hall. We will open the doors for attendees without reservations just before the screening starts. Alternatively, you can use one of the "Catch-Up screening" accessible with a purchased ticket from the "Catch-Up screening" package or with your accreditation. Tickets can be purchased at the Infopoint on the square.

  • Can I have popcorn at the screening? No, there is a blanket ban on food consumption in the cinema halls at the festival.

  • Need to be online? Connect to the festival wi-fi:

  • No map and your smartphone is dead? Don’t worry, a white line on the ground will lead you to all important festival locations.

  • Interested in festival sustainability? We are gradually implementing social, ecological and economic sustainability measures in the organisation of the festival and all year-round activities. Do you have an idea how to do it better? Read how we think about making Ji.hlava sustainable.
