Cambridge Film Festival returns – now over two weekends

Hello Friend, 


We’re thrilled to share with you the dates for the 2025 Cambridge Film Festival, which will take place from Thursday, 23 October, to Sunday, 2 November.


This year marks an exciting evolution for the Festival, which will once again run across two weekends, a format not seen since 2015.

The extended duration offers more chances than ever for audiences to enjoy the Festival at a time that suits them, whether midweek or weekend, for a day or across the entire programme.


The 2025 Festival will also feature an expanded slate of gala screenings, offering more moments to celebrate landmark films and welcome special guests. Alongside these headline events, CFF will continue to present a bold, diverse programme of international cinema, independent voices, and emerging talent.


The full programme will be announced this autumn, but we wanted to share this good news with you straight away!


Save the dates: 23 October–2 November.


Thank you for being part of the Cambridge Film Festival community. We can’t wait to welcome you back.
