Attention Canadian movie fans from all over! This festival season marks our 25th anniversary and we can’t wait to see you, February 26 – March 2, 2025!

For 25 years, KCFF has been committed to promoting and celebrating our national cinema, inviting filmmakers from coast-to-coast-to-coast to attend and present their work before an audience of all ages. We remember the earlier days with guests like Allan King, Gordon Pinsent, Deepa Mehta, and Elliot Page, and more recently visits from the likes Atom Egoyan, Alanis Obomsawin, Matt Johnson, and Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers. We estimate we’ve hosted nearly 2,000 filmmakers at KCFF over the years, and we can’t wait to share what’s in store for our big anniversary year.

As we say each year, we couldn’t do this without you. There are so many ways to support what we do: volunteer, sponsor, join our new Circle of Supporters donor program, or tell all your friends to save the dates and buy tickets!

We look forward to announcing the lineup on January 31 and going on sale February 1.

Looking forward to celebrating with you this winter!
