The 30th edition of the festival will take place in Sheffield from Wednesday 14 June to Monday 19 June 2023.
In a change to our recent schedule, the MeetMarket will take place on Thursday 15 June and Friday 16 June, allowing Industry Professionals the opportunity to experience the opening of the festival.
The best way to connect with the festival is through our Industry Pass. Passes are available to filmmakers, artists, freelancers and members of the film, digital art and related communities, in the UK and internationally. The Industry Pass gives you full access to the festival, including film screenings, exhibitions, live events, talks, panels, industry sessions and live pitches, networking events and parties.
So whether you’re just starting your journey in the industry or you’re an established creative in the sector, we look forward to welcoming you to Sheffield DocFest 2023.
