Greater New Orleans residents can claim one free ticket to the 2026 New Orleans Film Festival through its First Ticket on Us offer, sponsored by The Helis Foundation.
The Film Society’s ticket instructions say to choose a film or shorts program, add a ticket to the cart and enter ARTFORALL in the promo code field. The offer is limited to one ticket per person and covers an in-person or online screening. Reservations depend on availability.
The festival’s in-person run is October 22 through 27. Its virtual cinema runs October 22 through November 1, with availability and geographic restrictions varying by film.
Browse the official film guide for the screening time, venue and age guidance before reserving. The Film Society also says the code can be used at festival box offices once the event opens.
