Melbourne International Film Festival

The Melbourne International Film Festival is back for another mid-winter celebration of cinema with an expansive program of acclaimed international cinema, world premieres and the best in new Australian film.

This iconic annual festival – the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere – brings the most highly anticipated films from around the world to the heart of Melbourne. In 2022, the festival rings in its 70th edition with the launch of MIFF’s much-anticipated film competition and will showcase a series of special events, talks, performances, commissioned works, and cinema and online screenings – all of which will highlight and honour this important milestone through the lens of Melbourne’s own history on the silver screen.

4–21 August: In cinemas across Victoria
