Find out exactly when the world’s best film festivals start on our brand new Film Events Schedule page. For the last 20 years, FirstShowing has provided a clean, simple, easy-to-follow Release Schedule listing complete movie releases every opening weekend. In addition to this page, FS is ecstatic to launch a brand new schedule page – listing every major film festival around the world and other important film events (e.g. Oscars, BAFTAs, CinemaCon, etc). FirstShowing is a vital destination for movie updates & information. Our goal with this Film Events Schedule is to provide the same convenience and easy-of-use as our regular film Release Schedule, but for events in the cinema industry across all 12 months of the year. The page lists most major film festivals of all kinds from around the US and the entire planet (Rotterdam, Edinburgh, Sitges, Busan, Tokyo, Marrakesh, Melbourne, Zurich, etc). There are also key listings for prestigious awards nights including the Film Independent Spirit Awards, Actor Awards, Oscars, and so on. Along with industry events like CinemaCon, CineEurope, EFM/AFM, and so on. This schedule page will be updated with more additions when necessary as this is our very first version and initial launch in 2026. It’s designed for the film industry, but it’s also a website anyone can use & interact with to learn more about upcoming movie events each year. // Continue Reading ›
