Golden Isles Film Festival 

This event happens: October 22-25, 2026

The Golden Isles Film Festival (GIFF) is a celebration of independent filmmaking, devoted to championing original voices and fostering meaningful connections between creators and audiences. Nestled along the scenic Georgia coast, GIFF takes place in the beautiful Golden Isles, serving as a destination film festival and platform for filmmakers to share their work, engage in dialogue, and receive direct support from a community passionate about the art of storytelling.


With a focus on diverse, impactful categories such as Made in Georgia, Experimental, and International films, our festival offers opportunities for both emerging and established artists to shine. Supported by the Golden Isles Film Society, GIFF invites you to experience the heart of independent cinema in October 2026, in Historic Downtown Brunswick, Georgia
