Festival Party Schedule

You’ve spent the day learning and networking with some of the best established and emerging writers and filmmakers in the business. You’ve watched outstanding films complemented by lively and informative Q&A sessions with cast members and filmmakers. After all that, what else could you possibly want to do?

Party? Well…you’ve come to the right festival!

In addition to the amazing Conference panels and world-class film programming, Austin Film Festival throws a pretty good party. Where else can you enjoy complimentary Dos Equis and New Amsterdam Gin cocktails while discussing comedy writing techniques with THE HANGOVER writers Jon Lucas and Scott Moore? Only in Austin!
