Scenofest events with limited seating capacity will be ticketed. Tickets for performances will be $15 CAD while workshop prices will vary depending on the cost of providing the workshop. There will be free events that may require tickets due to seating capacity. There will also be free events that are included with registration that do not require tickets. Ticket income will be used to cover the overall costs of the festival.
