The Tallgrass Film Festival in Wichita has been called one of the best “under-the-radar film festivals in America” and an “undiscovered gem” by national media. Filmmakers from around the world participate.
This year’s festival is September 28 – October 2, 2022 in 8 venues in Wichita. They have FREE screening to matinee prices to 50% discount for students, veterans, and teachers.
This “stubbornly independent” film festival showcases films that you might not otherwise see in theaters. Featuring over a hundred films from numerous countries over five days in venues around Wichita, the Tallgrass Film Festival includes appearances by guest filmmakers, free educational events, parties, awards, and more.
For the complete Tallgrass Film Fest experience, you’ll want the VIP TALLpass ($250). TALLpass holders get admission to all general admission screenings along with other significant first-class perks. A movies-only TALLpass is $100, individual screenings range from free on up, with double features and gala screenings priced at $15 each ($45 if you also want to attend the party). Military, students, and teachers are offered a discount. All tickets will be sold in advance online; there are no tickets for day of screening.
