Kingston International Film Festival (KIFF) will light up the borough from 24-26 June this year with culture and tourism.
Backed by huge industry names like Dame Vanessa Redgrave, one of the few performers to achieve the Triple Crown of Acting, and BAFTA-award-winning Mike Newell, the festival is sure to be a success.
The borough was the home of the first-ever moving image, created in 1871 by Eadweard Muybridge, and it will now act as a vessel for innovation with the coming of this new creative platform.
From spectacular film showings to local outreach projects and Q&As with the best in the business, KIFF will have something for everyone to enjoy. Venues will include the ODEON Kingston, the Rose Theatre, and the Stirling Prize-winning Townhouse.
