Holmfirth Film Festival

It’s with great pleasure that we can now present our programme of events for this year’s festival. We have a superb range of attractions to appeal to all festival-goers, young and old. Insightful talks, lively discussions, special guests, workshops and of course screenings of both our selected full length feature films and the entries to our own Short Film Competition are all there for you to enjoy over the eight days of the festival.

Of course, many events will take place at Holmfirth’s very own historic cinema, The Picturedrome. However, there’s also plenty of chances to enjoy the surrounding area with fringe events taking place accross Holmfirth, the Holme Valley and beyond. Upperthong Village Hall, Hepworth Village Hall, Holmbridge Church and St. John’s Church, Upper Denby are all hosting events further afield, while closer to the centre of town, festival venues include Mezze, Harrow’s, Carniceria, The Box Office, Holmfirth Library and The Old Bridge Hotel.

The 2010 programme booklet is now complete and the presses are running. You’ll be able to pick up a copy for free from many of the above venues or from the Tourist Information centre on Huddersfield Road. Meanwhile, you can download a PDF version by clicking the image below. the programme contains full listings of what’s on, where, when and for how much, plus information on how to find the venues, who to contact for information, and crucially where to buy tickets. Many events are free, but some unfortunately must be ticketed, and a few have very limited places – so book now!

Summer is just around the corner and we’re now counting down the days… We look forward to seeing you there.
