Describe the actual viewing arrangement
Decide whether the group will sit around one screen or watch separately. Those are different arrangements under this particular organiser’s wording. The number of relatives in the family does not by itself identify the appropriate pass.
For example, two people sharing the living-room screen and another relative watching in another city should not be treated as one identical scenario merely because they are one family. Keep the physical arrangement and devices clear before comparing the pass descriptions.
Check the content scope as well as the audience scope
The pass page separately distinguishes a full virtual pass from a shorts-only pass. A household choice concerns the intended audience arrangement; a shorts choice concerns which programmes are included. Confirm both dimensions rather than inferring one from the other.
Open the actual film or programme before making a decision. A feature page being visible does not mean a shorts-only pass includes it. The organiser’s current programme and pass conditions, rather than the generic Eventive brand, determine the purchased scope.
Read territorial and timing conditions independently
The 2026 virtual-festival page says viewers must be in Canada or the United States for its virtual content. A household pass does not remove that condition, and a paid confirmation does not establish unrestricted Australian viewing. Check the event’s actual availability and dates.
This is a reading of the named 2026 offer, not a rule imposed on every Eventive festival or a promise of future ticket availability. If the intended arrangement is unclear, ask SAFF with the pass name, locations and programme. Avoid buying one broad-sounding pass and assuming the platform’s technical sign-in options answer all the organiser’s audience conditions.
Questions about this guide
Does SAFF 2026 define household as relatives watching anywhere?
Its page describes household members watching together and recommends individual passes for separate locations/devices.
Does the household choice also settle shorts versus features?
No. The organiser separately defines the content covered by full virtual and shorts passes.
