Advanced booking & ticket booking
You can purchase E.O.F.T. tickets online on our website or through our local pre-selling partners. There is no reserved seating on all E.O.F.T. events. Here you can find your local pre-selling partner.
What kind of different payment options are available?
Credit card, Paypal or direct credit transfer.
Why does my credit card payment not work?
There are many reasons for a faulty credit card payment. Usually the MasterCard® SecureCode™/ Verified by Visa Code is missing. Usually banks are demanding those codes as a mandatory input because of safety reasons. Please contact your bank, in case you have any problems with those codes. If you still have problems, please write us a message via our contact form and put ‘credit card payment’ as reference.
Do you send ticket via postal service?
For selected events in Germany we do have an option to deliver tickets directly to your address, whereby you need to pay an additional fee for shipping. The shipping period usually takes around 5 to 7 working days.
You cannot choose any options to ship express or overseas. There is no possibility to deliver tickets for Open Air Events.
Do you have discounted E.O.F.T-tickets available?
We do have one ticket price for every country. Any discounts for children, students and community members of DAV etc. are not available.
Why did I not receive any booking confirmation?
Please make sure that your confirmation mail is not in your SPAM folder. Another option could be that you did enrol with a faulty E-mail address. In case, please send us a message via our contact form and put ‘ticket order’ as reference.
Can I return my E.O.F.T tickets?
There is no possibility to return your E.O.F.T. ticket. Please consider our terms and conditions: www.eoft.eu/shop/agb
You can easily give away your ticket or sell it on-site of the event. In case there is someone who would like to purchase a ticket, you can sell your ticket at advanced booking price.
Can I return my E.O.F.T Open Air tickets?
Even though there is bad weather on the day of the event, you are not able to return your E.O.F.T. Open Air tickets. Basically, each event takes place regardless weather conditions. You can find more information on the website of the different Open Air Cinemas. There is no nametag on the tickets, therefore you can easily give away or sell your ticket.
Can I give away my E.O.F.T tickets?
Yes, you can give away your tickets since there is no related nametag. You just need to pass on your confirmation mail.
Do you have reserved seats?
There is no reserved seating at our events. You can freely choose where to sit.
Event sold out?!
In case an E.O.F.T event is marked as ‘sold out’ on our website, it does not mean that there are no tickets available anymore.
Pre-selling partner
Our pre-selling partner usually sells E.O.F.T tickets and often still has tickets available even if our online contingent is exhausted. You can find our local partner under event reviews.
Box office
There is no set ticket contingent for our box office. In case press/guest cards are not used, we do offer those for purchasing just in time before the event.
1.5 h before the event starts, we collect names of those who are interested in purchasing a ticket. In case there are spare tickets available, we sell those tickets 5-10 minutes before the event starts. So better come early since there is a greater chance to get tickets.
In some cases there are people who would like to sell their tickets on-site. Meeting point is our box office. We are open to connect seller and interested buyer.
Additional events
In case an E.O.F.T. event is completely sold out, you are able to subscribe for the E.O.F.T ticket newsletter. If demand in one city appears very high, we usually organize an additional event. Each member of our ticket newsletter gets a notification via E-mail that there is an additional event in this city or somewhere around.

Why are ‘Best-of-DVDs/Blu-rays/Downloads incomplete?
‘Best of E.O.F.T’ is a selection of movies. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to integrate a movie in our ‘Best of’ that was favoured by the audience. In some cases producers would like to sell their DVDs, Blu-rays or downloads on their own.
Do movies have subtitles?
All of our E.O.F.T-DVDs and Blu-rays do have German subtitles. Subtitles in different languages such as German, English, Dutch, French and Italian are available since ’Best-of-E.O.F.T. No. 8’.
Can I play E.O.F.T DVDs/Blu-rays overseas?
DVDs
E.O.F.T. DVDs do not have a regional code. Therefore it is readable anywhere but not always playable. E.O.F.T. DVDs play 25 pictures per second and do have the PAL-video standard system. This system is not used in all foreign countries, so the DVD can not be interpreted by the DVD player.
Blu-Rays
Our Blu-rays are also activated for different regions (A,B & C). The problem with PAL-system is comparable to DVDs.
Can I download E.O.F.T movies for buying or lending?
Since ‘Best-of-E.O.F.T No. 9‘ we do have our movies online available on Vimeo and iTunes.
Lending or Buying
You can lend or buy our E.O.F.T DVDs at Vimeo or iTunes. More information for conditions are available: Vimeo | iTunes.
Prices for items differ based on provider and resolution (HD or SD). Invoices are not done through our E.O.F.T Online Shop but directly of Vimeo and iTunes.
Film program
How long does the whole program last?
The definite length of the new program not set yet. In the past, the whole film program usually lasted around 120 minutes. With a 15 minutes break, moderation and competition the whole events takes 2.5-3 hours.
Is there any break in between?
Yes, there is a break of 15 minutes after half of the program is shown.
Is the program suitable for children?
Basically, there is no age restriction for our program. There could be different scenes such as collapses, injuries etc. that could frighten children. Additionally, our program does not finish before 23 pm at night.
