Monthly screenings
The Stratford Film Festival’s monthly screening series provides film enthusiasts with an ongoing opportunity to discover exceptional cinema throughout the year in the heart of historic Stratford. These thoughtfully curated screenings showcase festival favourites and new discoveries, creating an intimate setting where audiences can experience compelling independent films from around the world and around the corner.
Each monthly screening stands as its own unique showing, allowing movie lovers the flexibility to attend individual showings that capture their interest without committing to a full annual pass. Set in beautiful venues like the iconic Stratford City Hall Auditorium, these regular screenings offer a welcoming atmosphere where cinema lovers can gather to enjoy carefully selected films that entertain and inspire through compelling visual storytelling.
Beyond The
Screen
Special Film events
Beyond regular screenings, the Stratford Film Festival enhances the cinematic experience with thoughtfully curated special events that bring films to life through meaningful conversation and community connection.
These events feature filmmaker Q&As where audiences can engage directly with the creative minds behind the films, post-screening panel discussions that dive deeper into the themes and stories presented, and unique experiences like dinner-and-movie nights that combine culinary delights with cinema.
Types of Events
Whether it’s exploring the craft of storytelling with visiting filmmakers or participating in community conversations sparked by thought-provoking films, these events transform movie-going from a passive experience into an interactive celebration of independent cinema and the ideas it inspires.
