Fairhope Film Festival

The Fairhope Film Festival marks its 14th year with four days of films picked from the finalists of national and international festivals: foreign and feature films, documentaries and shorts, many of which never reach big theaters. Directors, actors and screenwriters often attend screenings to talk about their work.

The 2026 festival runs November 12 to 15. The main venues are within walking distance of each other in downtown Fairhope, so you can park once and walk between screenings and dinner. Passes and the schedule are released through the festival’s website and newsletter, so sign up early if you want a full pass.
