This special anniversary year marks a chance to celebrate the Festival’s extraordinary history and look ahead to an exciting future. The VAFF is set to once again fascinate, delight, and entertain with a program highlighted by some of the biggest titles on the current festival circuit, engaging documentaries, today’s top international films and more. Combine that with the fascinating discussions that help audiences go beyond the screen to explore issues at the heart of the world we live in today, and it is no surprise that the VAFF has become one of the leading regional film festivals, and one of the premier cultural events in the Mid Atlantic.
This year’s VAFF program will be announced on Tuesday, October 11, and tickets will go on sale a week later, on October 18. But that doesn’t mean you have to wait to start planning your Virginia Film Festival experience! As you can imagine, lodging opportunities are at a premium during this incredible event, but the Virginia Film Festival is partnering with The Charlottesville Guide to create some special packages that combine premium lodging with VAFF ticket packages that will put you right in the middle of the action.
