Saturday, September 13 – Film Screenings @ Regal San Bernardino ($20 All-Day Pass) Sunday, September 14 – Awards Ceremony & Celebration @ Orton Center, University of Redlands (Free, RSVP encouraged)
REDLANDS, CA— The Inland Film Festival returns with a full weekend celebrating the power of local storytelling, the talent of Inland Empire filmmakers, and the community that supports them.
On Saturday, September 13, Regal San Bernardino will host over 65 films spanning multiple genres and voices. A single $20 all-day pass gives audiences access to an entire day of screenings and the opportunity to connect directly with the filmmakers bringing these stories to life.
On Sunday, September 14, the celebration moves to the Orton Center at the University of Redlands for the Awards Ceremony & Closing Celebration—free with RSVP where we’ll present eight awards!
This festival is the culmination of a regional movement to strengthen the creative economy. Over the past several months, we’ve hosted workforce development workshops and masterclasses covering every stage of filmmaking—from ideation and pre-production to post-production and funding. More than 20 partners have powered this work, including Phase 3, Future First, IE Sol Collective Theatre, Riverside Arts Council, El Sol, KVCR, and many more.
A special thank you to our Spotlight Sponsors: Thrive Inland SoCal, Inland Empire Labor Institute, IEGO, and Inland Empire Community News for making this possible.
Join in for a weekend that honors creativity, amplifies local voices, and builds the future of film in the Inland Empire.
