The 2025 Port Townsend Film Festival brings together filmmakers and audiences for a weekend of thoughtful storytelling, conversation, and community on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula.

Set in one of the Pacific Northwest’s most distinctive towns, this year’s festival features a curated lineup of independent films, director talks, and casual gatherings that make room for connection on and off the screen.

This isn't just a film festival—it's a shared experience. Port Townsend offers a welcoming setting for audiences and filmmakers to meet, reflect, and enjoy film in a slower, more intentional way.

Historic downtown theaters, pop-up screening venues, and outdoor spaces create an approachable atmosphere for discovering new voices in film.

With its walkable downtown and easy pace, Port Townsend is a natural backdrop for a festival that invites you to slow down and really watch.

Films screen in a mix of historic venues and casual outdoor spaces, giving the festival a laid-back but intentional feel that makes it easy to connect with stories—and each other.
