The Liverpool Film Festival 2024 is excited to welcome submissions to one of the fasting growing independent film festivals in the world, taking place December 2024.

As always LIVIFF is looking to find the most bold and inventive stories that the independent film community has to offer, to screen in the birthplace of the Beatles and a city of rich culturally creative history and passion. With the ambition to match the city’s cool and artistic identity, LIVIFF is an international film festival with credibility and integrity and is a proud associate of The Manchester film festival.

LIVIFF2024 will welcome the best and up and coming filmmakers from around the world to showcase their work on the cinema screen that will provide the perfect platform to see the films how they are meant to be seen.
