Events Overview

The events calendar allows all community members to stay up to date with the upcoming film festivals, workshops, important notification and submission dates for the main festivals and film events around the globe.
Any Lift-Off member can also make the most of the events calendar as a marketing tool for their own screenings or events by submitting a event to us. By submitting a event you are putting your event on all Lift-Off Community members calendars.

You change the way you view the events page : monthly ( month) , yearly (list) or daily (day).

INSERT VIEW AS BAR: LIST< MONTH< DAY

    Alternatively you could search a festival in the search bar. We recommend searching festivals in a List view if you are looking to enter your film. This allows you to see the submission, notification and festival dates.

    We recommend adding this event to your google calendar or ical export to insure you don’t miss it. This will also transfer all the key details to your own calendar.
    If you want to stay updated with all events, festivals and important dates you can download the whole of the events calendar to your google calendar by not entering anything into the search bar, view as month and scroll down to export events.
