Altoona Reel Film Festival

Get ready, filmmakers of ALL levels, all regions — the Altoona Reel Film Festival is gearing up to host the FIRST EVER film festival in Altoona, Pennsylvania this fall!

This isn’t just any event — it’s a celebration of creativity, hustle, and the power of storytelling. In partnership with ArtsAltoona and the Southern Allegheny Museum of the Arts, the Altoona Reel Film Festival is where your hard work behind the scenes takes center stage. Whether you're a first-time filmmaker with a phone camera or a seasoned storyteller with a full production crew, this one-day festival is your chance to be in the spotlight

We're talking bold indies and the kind of thought-provoking cinema that sticks with you long after the credits roll. We believe that the art and passion of filmmaking as a whole deserves to be celebrated; and we want to see your work! The festival will bring together must-see films from seasoned directors to students with fresh new voices, local and abroad.

Expect short film screenings throughout the entire day, Q&A’s with our keynote speaker, engaging workshops, and chances to connect with other creatives. It's a celebration of the indie community— and you’re invited!
