The critically-acclaimed Boulder International Film Festival (BIFF) has gained a reputation as one of the most influential and innovative film festivals in the U.S., with a large number of new-but-unknown feature films, documentaries, and shorts that have gone from early screenings at BIFF to significant box-office success and multiple Oscar nominations. With over 25,000 attendees, A-list filmmaker and celebrity guests, countless opportunities for widespread exposure, and some of the best films and filmmakers working today, it's clear why BIFF was named one of MovieMaker Magazine's "25 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee" and "25 Coolest Film Festivals."

The BIFF public relations and marketing teams shine the spotlight on the festival's attending filmmakers; garnering millions of media impressions throughout the festival and providing filmmakers with excellent exposure opportunities and huge, enthusiast audiences. Major industry who attend the Festival include big-leaguers like The Hollywood Reporter, MovieMaker Magazine, DreamWorks, 20th Century Fox, A & E IndieFilms, IFC, The Orchard, and worldwide film sales company Submarine Entertainment.

For four jam-packed days, visiting filmmakers at BIFF enjoy complimentary luxurious accommodations and an exclusive Red-Carpet VIP pass to legendary late-night galas and unforgettable parties, where plenty of interaction with award-winning filmmakers and celebrities is the norm. Of course, most people go to Colorado in February to ski! Filmmakers can head up to the slopes for some of the best skiing of the year, compliments of BIFF.
