Event Info

The Venice Film Festival, which also goes by the Venice International Film Festival, is considered to be one of the oldest film festivals in the world since its founding in 1932. This film festival, an annual event that typically takes place in late August or early September, is a prestigious event that can be attended by both industry professionals and the general public.

In addition to being among the oldest film festivals, it’s also considered to be one of the largest festivals that seems to be quickly growing every year. The event was founded as a way to promote Italian culture and films, since the population of Italy had such an interest in films. These films were primarily American, which is why they wanted to put the focus back on Italian film. This is one of the major film festivals in the globe. Attendees, including the general public, can purchase passes that allow them to book screenings. There are different passes, which gives you access to various areas of the festival.

Today, the goal of this festival is to promote international cinema and raise awareness of the cinema in its many forms. The 2021 Venice Film Festival is set to take place September 1-11 at Venice Lido.
