Movie buffs, rejoice: while the Gold Coast Film Festival was cancelled last year due to COVID, we’re happy to announce it will be making a comeback this year.

The festival program will be jam-packed with over 100 films, panels, parties and pop-up events across the Gold Coast and online from 14 April to 25 April. Some of Australia’s best A-list talent will also be gracing the occasion with their presence, so watch this space.

Besides a full program of films (to be announced in March), fan-favourite special events will once again be part of the line-up, including the Women in Film Lunch, Clueless on the Rooftop, and a three-day line-up of films starring Aussie favourites at Burleigh Brewing.

“Rain, hail, shine, or pandemic, there will be a festival in 2021 with all events and screenings shaped to stringent COVID safety guidelines, providing cinema-goers a safe environment,” says Gold Coast Film Festival CEO Aimée Lindorff. But just in case, Ms. Lindorff says that a virtual model of the festival was also created as backup, for any unforeseen circumstances.
