In this post I’m going to look at different festivals which take place around the world. There are a wide variety of different festivals which are put on every year with major ones such as Cannes and Toronto, as well smaller events for a more niche selection of films.
Cannes film festival
The Cannes film festival is not only one of the best well known film festivals, but as it was founded in 1946 makes it one of the oldest festivals out there too. Filmmakers, directors and distributors from all around the world attend the festival due to its high reputation. The festival has become a great event to see groundbreaking European films and many have been picked up from here.
Aspen film
The Aspen film festival has been held in Colorado since 1979 and attracts average cinema goers as well people who work in the film industry. All the films which are shown every year, are regional debuts, so you wouldn’t be able to see them anywhere else in the local area. Aspen also do a lot of work with schools and education establishments. Around 30, 000 people per year take part in the different events run by the organisation.
