Into Film Clubs
Find out everything you need to know about starting an Into Film Club.
We're delighted to announce that bookings for the Into Film Festival, the largest free youth film festival in the world, will go live next week on the morning of Wednesday 10 September.
The Into Film Festival 2025 takes place between 7-28 November, and will feature thousands of free screenings and special events right across the UK. In 2024 we welcomed almost 400,000 attendees, and this year's Festival promises to be even bigger, with over 3,000 events taking place across more than 600 venues.
This year's Festival programme is bursting with incredible films, from beloved classics, to thought-provoking documentaries, and recent blockbuster releases. With a programme of more than 75 films, titles will include animated hit Dog Man, Disney's live action adaptation of Lilo & Stitch, the phenomenon that is Wicked, and one of the most unique non-fiction films of recent years in Grand Theft Hamlet - an attempt to stage a production of Shakespeare's famous play entirely within a Grand Theft Auto video game.
One particular highlight of this year's programme will be a series of special premiere events for Together Films' Future Council. The latest inspiring film from director Damon Gameau (2040, That Sugar Film), Future Council is the story of eight kids on the ultimate school excursion: a road trip across Europe to challenge powerful leaders and find solutions to our greatest ecological challenges. This is a coming-of-age journey that dares to imagine a brighter future.
Places will be available to book from Wednesday morning, and are available on a first-come, first-served basis, so add a reminder to your calendars now to ensure you don't miss out, as many events will book up very quickly. And remember - the Into Film Festival is entirely free! To book your places you'll just need to be logged in to your Into Film Account.
