Welcome

The 63rd Cork Film Festival will take place from 9th – 18th November 2018

The Cork Film Festival is Ireland’s largest and first film festival and one of Cork’s most significant and popular annual cultural events.

Cork Film Festival is a local, national and international celebration of cinema, running annually for ten days in November in Cork. Award-winning films from the international film festival circuit, new discoveries and cinema classics are selected by our experienced curatorial team, to be premiered on the big screen in Cork. The Festival showcases the latest and best international and Irish features, documentaries and shorts, and includes programmes for schools, families, a focus on mental health, and specialist Industry Days.

If you attended the 2017 Festival, we would like to thank you for your support and we look forward to welcoming you back in 2018.
