Each event is listed at the festival's Eventbrite site (link below) and is ticketed separately, so individuals should register for each event they want to attend. Once they register there for each event they want to attend, they will get an automated email for each of those with a PDF ticket attached to that email. They should either print that PDF or keep it on their phone and should present it to the ushers when they enter each event.
