How to Attend a Porn Film Festival

Since the 1970s, a number of porn film festivals have sprung up all over the world.

If you are looking to attend a porn film festival, there are some thing you should know and do beforehand. Follow these steps to attend a porn film festival.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

1. Know what you're in for. Porn film festivals don't feature diluted approximations of the real thing. Almost always, the film festivals take porn films head on, showing bona fide pornographic content throughout the festival. Make sure that you know what you're in for by checking out the festival's website and brochure so you don't get an unwelcome surprise.
2. Decide what kind of festival you want to attend. There are many different kinds of porn festivals to attend. Some, like the Indie-Porn-Short-Movies Festival feature 5-minute-long, mostly homemade pornographic films. Others, such as the Berlin Porn Film Festival, show locally made and distributed porn. Decide what interests you so you attend the right festival.
3. Plan the dates carefully. Porn film festivals are rarely well financed enough to have week-long screenings of the films. Some major porn film festivals, such as Darryl's Hard Liquor and Porn Festival, occur on sporadic dates in less known locations. So, plan your trip to a porn film fest carefully so you don't miss one of the few screenings of the festival.
4. Cover your bases. Almost all porn film festivals will request ID to prove that you are over the age of 18 or, in some cases, 21. So, make sure to bring official identification with you. Also, be sure that the festival is not in an area where you might run into a colleague or friend who might raise an eyebrow at your decision to attend the festival.
