KCFF may be Canada’s largest festival dedicated to showcasing Canadian cinema, but it’s so much more than awesome movies.
Think Q&A’s with filmmakers, workshops where you can pick up the latest tips on the industry. You can even catch performances and talks with legends like Jay Baruchel, Jeremy Hotz, Carolyn Taylor, and cast from Letterkenny.
The anniversary celebration also happens during Kingstonlicious, so you can relish the festivities while enjoying a great culinary experience. What’s more, bookings for an overnight stay package for Kingstonlicious will receive a $100 VISA gift card. Talk about a big bang for your buck!
