Adirondack Film presents The Lake Placid Film Festival
November 7-10, 2024
Ignite your spark at the 2024 Lake Placid Film Festival! Adirondack Film is proud to celebrate the community of film industry amateurs, professionals, and just plain movie buffs, with award-winning shorts screenings, cutting-edge feature-length films, educational seminars, mixers, receptions, tributes, directors, producers; and you: all wrapped in the mystical, magical village of Lake Placid, NY.
Amazing Films + A Beautiful Place = The Perfect 4 Days
Named one of the best Film Festival Vacation Destinations by MovieMaker Magazine, the Lake Placid Film Festival will run Thursday, November 7 through Sunday, November 10, 2024. 2023 was a near record-breaking year for attendance, and we hope to welcome even more movie lovers in 2024!
Film Festival Schedule
The Lake Placid Film Festival packs a lot into four days! From panels and workshops to feature films and inspiring shorts, there is lots to do whether you're here to learn and make connections or just enjoy some big screen fun!
Check out the full 2024 Lake Placid Film Festival Schedule.
Featured events include:
Thursday, Nov 7: Kick off the festivities at the Opening Night Party at the High Peaks Resort! Then join Olympic gold medalist and 1980 US Men's Hockey team member Buzz Schneider for a showing of Miracle at the Palace Theatre at 7 p.m.
Friday, Nov 8: Friday is a busy day at the film festival! Check out the Your Shorts Are Showing judged short film competition at the Lake Placid Center for the Arts (LPCA) and carve out time for some of the three feature films playing at the Palace Theatre later in the day! Get your heart pumping at the BETA Double Feature: In The Dirt & Descendance, an exciting outdoor sports experience highlighting mountain biking and backcountry skiing. Don't miss your very own Hollywood moment at the Red Carpet Cocktail event, featuring conversation and Q&A with industry elites Jonathan Burkhart, Jacob Krueger, and Jill Burkhart. Last but not least, an annual favorite—the Lake Placid Film Festival Trivia Mixer at Roamers Café & Bar! Test your team's cinematic knowledge and meet other film lovers over an evening of fun and fierce competition.
Saturday, Nov 9: Saturday is a blockbuster day, with tons of feature films spanning genres, many of which will feature Q&As with actors, cinematographers, directors, and other special guests! The kids will love Ghost Cat Anzu, a delightful anime film for all ages, and, in case you missed it on Thursday, an encore of Miracle with special guest Buzz Schneider to celebrate the film's 20th anniversary! Cap off the day by celebrating the winners of the Your Shorts Are Showing competition and (new this year) Made Upstate award at the Short Film and Episodic Awards After Party at the High Peaks Resort!
Sunday, Nov 10: Wrap up your 2024 Lake Placid Film Festival experience with more movies! From state and continental premieres to free family features and encores of films you may have missed in the days before, Sunday offers back to back movies that will keep you glued to your seat.
