The Windsor International Film Festival is returning fall with presenting sponsor, the Toldo Foundation.

“We are absolutely thrilled to have the Toldo Foundation as our presenting sponsor,” said Vincent Georgie, WIFF’s Executive Director and Chief Programmer. “The Toldos have a long-standing history of community building in Windsor-Essex, and we are so excited that they are again partnering with us, and for such a historic return – we will be back better than ever this November.”

The 2022 festival will run from Thursday, October 27th to Sunday, November 6th, 2022, and will be the first-ever 11-day festival.

This year will mark the return of the traditional festival since the beginning of the pandemic. WIFF’s 2019 festival sold over 42,000 tickets. It featured the WIFF Prize in Canadian Film, WIFF Village, The Mark Boscariol 48hour FlickFest, Women of WIFF, a number of special screenings, guests and more, all slated to return this November.

More information about the festival program and events will be announced in the fall.

WIFF has hosted “WIFF Under the Stars” drive-in-style events for the community during the pandemic but will turn its focus towards the return of the 2022 festival and will not be planning any drive-in-style events this year.
