Wimbledon International Short Film Festival

About Us

The Festival was established in 2008 by Johnjoe McFadden and Penny Amerena to champion emerging filmmaking talent globally. Over the years, the Festival has expanded from approximately 100 entries to around 300 each year, and attained BIFA qualifying status.

Since its inception, the Wimbledon International Short Film Festival has been a pivotal contributor to the cultural landscape of Wimbledon. The Festival Awards night has become a significant date for film enthusiasts and individuals interested in arts and entertainment.

Previously held in conjunction with the Wimbledon Book Festival, in 2021, we successfully hosted the event at the Polka Theatre, where the winning films captivated a lively and engaged audience. Our Festival resonates with the vibrant creative student community that thrives in Wimbledon and its surroundings.
