I can't tell from the brochure or the recent anouncement on sponsorship -

When is the film festival to take place during BotCon?

If no set schedule for it is in place, can anyone veteran BotCon atendees share when it traditionally has taken place?

Thanks, I'm considering general admission but the film festival is the main event during BotCon that I'm most interested in attending.

On my Botcon registration confirmation letter it is only listed as "Friday Evening" I would imagine you'd need a registered package such as Primus, Protoform, Minicon, etc. to get in.

That seals the deal then, protoform package it is. Even if it means less flow for the dealer room, I can't miss out on these fan videos, some of which I'm sure I'll end up watching online and drinking to up until next BotCon.
