The health and safety of the SAN DIEGO ASIAN FILM FESTIVAL guests, staff, artists, and volunteers remain of the highest importance. We will be committed to practicing COVID-19 safety protocols during this year’s events and festival, and therefore all staff and volunteers working the Festival will be fully vaccinated and required to mask indoors.
During SDAFF, we highly recommend that all attendees wear masks in our festival auditoriums and lobby spaces to keep themselves and other community members safe, and we strongly encourage all attendees to be current on all COVID-19 vaccinations and to test before attending and during the Festival. We will continue to monitor state and local safety guidelines and will announce additional safety measures as we get closer to the festival if necessary.
