2025 Golden Isles Film Festival

GIFF is BACK and better than ever! This time around, we’re aiming to double the number of films showcased, double the variety of venues featured, and yes, you guessed it, double the attendance, as well— so please help us spread the word far and wide!

You can also look forward to an exciting mix of shorts, features, and our all-time favorite horror short films, not to mention some new categories that we’ve added to the mix, that will thrill festival attendees and filmmakers alike. Anticipate a grander opening night, along with the inauguration of our much-anticipated Fork & Screen event, which will be filling Newcastle Street with a delightful selection of local vendors offering delicious food and unique products.
