You wish to be accredited as a student:

Please send us a written request by postal mail, fax or e-mail to accreditation@filmfest-muenchen.de (with signature), with your complete address, your full name and your filmschool. Please include a confirmation from your filmschool.

After your application has been approved we will send you a personal link to the registration form by e-mail. Please upload your digital passport photo (portrait format, jpg, max. 150 dpi) to the registration form.

  • Free tickets to all the films in the festival program (available from the Filmfest Webshop and at the Filmfest box offices)

  • Access to the Press and Guest Center (incl. information service)

  • Upon request, your contact information may be added to the login section of the FILMFEST MÜNCHEN website

Festival accreditation processing fee:

The fee for accreditation for film students is EUR 55.00 (incl. 19% VAT.). Payment will be charged to the credit card listed on your application. In Germany, payment can also be made by bank debit ('SEPA-Basislastschrift'). You will receive a receipt both when your accreditation is confirmed by e-mail and when you pick up your badge. Separate invoices will not be sent.

If we receive written notification from you by June 14, 2024 that you will not be able to attend the festival, your processing fee will be refunded. Later cancellations and 'no shows' will not receive refunds.

The festival accreditation can be picked up at the accreditation counter at the festival center Amerikahaus , Karolinenplatz 3, at the beginning of the festival.

If you are unable to pick up your accreditation in person, please provide the person picking it up with a letter of authorization.
