SIFF has pulled back the curtain on the official artwork and participating venues for its landmark 50th edition, taking place May 9th to 19th, 2024. 

If you have attended SIFF in the past, you have certainly seen the handiwork of WONGDOODY. This year is no different, as SIFF’s partnership continues with the Seattle-based design agency for the fest’s poster art.

When it comes to art on the big screen, movie lovers will have plenty of venue options to catch their must-see flicks over the fest’s 11-day span.

To kick things off, the Opening Night Gala film and party will be held at the Paramount Theatre, setting the stage for a week-long celebration of movies.

SIFF’s own theaters – SIFF Cinema Uptown, Egyptian, Film Center, and the newly opened Downtown location – will be buzzing during the fest, screening over a hundred films. Additionally, AMC Pacific Place, Shoreline Community College, and Majestic Bay Theatres will getting in on the action with screenings throughout the week. 

Once the final film fades to black, SIFF moviegoers will head over to the Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI), for a final SIFF toast at the closing night party.

But, the festival experience doesn’t end there. Virtual cinephiles can enjoy a selection of films online from May 20-27 on the SIFF Channel. Passes and ticket packages are already on sale, with individual tickets dropping for SIFF members on April 17th and the general public on April 18th.

So, mark your calendars, get your tickets, and settle in for SIFF 2024 and the magic of movies.
