A Screening Good Time!

Sonoma International Film Festival 2018

Days are getting longer and movies are getting better—time to look ahead to the Sonoma International Film Festival! From March 21 through 25 you can enjoy fantastic wines, food from local hotspots, and over 100 new indie films.

From shorts and documentaries to feature-length excellence, all of the movie venues are walking distance to Sonoma’s historic plaza. Hang out with the filmmakers, meet the stars, soak up the sunshine, and—of course—get to those parties!

Opt for a start-to-finish weekend with the kickoff soirée and all the events, or sip and swirl your way through the days while catching a few films in between. World premieres, after-parties, strolling with the stars, just add selfies to your personal documentary of this year’s festival. And… action!

The Sonoma International Film Festival (SIFF) is March 21–25. Get single tickets or full-festival passes before they sell out.
