This year’s Opening Night coincides with MFA Late Nites, when the Museum is open to the public until 2:00 am. Therefore, a different plan for entering the Museum is in place: Please use the Linde Family Wing Entrance on Museum Road (next to Remis Auditorium). Doors open at 6:30 pm.

To minimize time waiting in line, festival attendees are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance, choose the print-at-home option, and bring a printed ticket.

Guests of all ages are welcome; visitors wishing to consume alcohol must be 21+. Valid ID with proof of age is required to purchase alcohol. Food and drink will be available for purchase; no outside food or beverage allowed.

All bags are subject to inspection by Museum staff. Backpacks and large bags are not permitted. All other smaller bags are strongly discouraged and will be inspected.

Thank you, and enjoy #BPFF2018!
