The Phoenix Film Festival was started in 2000 by 3 local filmmakers in an effort to get their films some local exposure. Twenty-four years and thousands of movies later, the festival has grown from a 3-day exhibition to an 11-day celebration of film with over 250 films, film making seminars, student workshops and parties.
The Phoenix Film Festival has been named one of The 25 Coolest Film Festivals and recently earned a spot on MovieMaker’s 20 Great Film Festivals for First-Time Moviemakers. So, what are you waiting for?!? Come celebrate the silver screen and book your tickets NOW!
