The Milwaukee Film Festival is a public film festival held each spring from April 20 through May 4 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The festival is organized by Milwaukee Film, a cultural arts organization that operates Milwaukee's historic movie palace, The Oriental Theatre, and facilitates year-long programming and initiatives using film to inspire community, artistry, education, and joy.
In 2015, 304 films[1] from more than 50 countries were screened at five Milwaukee County venues, with nearly 71,000 attendees.[2][3]
Founded in 2009, after the Milwaukee International Film Festival was discontinued,[4] the Milwaukee Film Festival is the fifth largest film festival in the United States in terms of attendance, the number of films screened and festival length.[5]
