A few things to know.
When can I start watching?
Film screenings run on 6, 7, 8 and 9 November 2026. Each batch is available for 24 hours. The gala night streams live on Friday 13 November 2026. Exact screening and gala broadcast times will be announced with the programme.
Will every festival film be available?
No. Only films with the appropriate streaming permissions will be shown. Not every film selected for the in-person festival will be included, and individual films may have country restrictions. Availability will be clear before you book or watch.
Can I join from outside the UK?
The online edition is for people who can’t travel to the festival, including audiences outside the UK. The films you can watch will depend on their licensed viewing territories.
Does pre-registering give me access?
Pre-registration signs you up for streaming updates, not a ticket or access to a particular film. Passes and prices will be announced. Sign-in, subscriptions and payments use your central Fear Screen account.
