Accessibility at locations and screenings
During IDFA, there will be several screenings with adjustments or additional facilities, including sensory-friendly screenings and films with audio description and subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing. These will be available on the website starting October 25. We also provide an overview of the accessibility at various festival venues in Amsterdam. Planning to attend IDFA in a wheelchair? After purchasing your ticket, please send the title, time, and location of the screening to service@idfa.nl.

Accessibility filters in the program overview.
Starting October 25, the entire program will be available online. In the daily program (this link will work starting October 25), you can filter by various types of accessibility, such as Earcatch, OSD, sensory-friendly screenings, and films without dialogue, using the filter button on the right side under the 'Accessibility' section.
Please note: The filter results will only show the screenings for one day. If you want to see the results for other days, please switch the day in the overview.
Sensory friendly screenings
Sensory-friendly screenings will take place at the Ketelhuis. During these screenings, the lights will be dimmed, the sound will be lower than usual, and there will be no trailers at the beginning. There is also the option to step out for a break during the film. Additionally, the screenings will be in the morning, making it less crowded.
