Announcing the 2024 Climate Film Festival Film Program: Tickets Now Available!
Be one of the first to get your tickets to the inaugural Climate Film Festival
We could not be more thrilled to announce the full film slate for the inaugural Climate Film Festival. Tickets and the full screening schedule are available below. Please note that we’ll be announcing additional details about Opening Night, panels, and workshops in the coming weeks.
The Films
Out of well over 300 submissions, we’ve selected a slate of 59 boundary-pushing short-, episodic-, and feature-length films, 31 of which have never been shown publicly in NYC. These are films that inspire new ways of thinking about the world, challenging our expectations of what climate cinema can be and opening up new perspectives on what it means to live in times of climate change.

When: Starting at 6:00 PM
Where: The Explorers Club, 46 E 70th St, New York, NY 10021

What to Expect
We’ll have special opening night and closing night events, but the bulk of the program will take place on Saturday and Sunday at Firehouse Cinema: DCTV’s Cinema for Documentary Film (87 Lafayette St, just south of Canal).
Plan on back-to-back film programming, panels, coffee, snacks, and conversation all weekend long.
We’re taking over the entire building, with four dedicated rooms:
🎬 Features Theater
Documentary features with post-screening Q&As
🍿 Shorts Theater
Narrative, experimental, and documentary shorts with post-screening Q&As
☕️ Solutions Hub
Complimentary coffee and snacks, workshops, and partner tables
💡 Filmmaker Lounge
Six public panels, invite-only events, a special screening, and more
Our Sponsors
We could not do this without the incredible help of our sponsors: the Guardian US, SNØCAP, The Carmack Collective Fund, a fund of Tides Foundation, CEEZER, Rewiring America, Earth Angel by TheGreenShot, Bard Graduate Programs in Sustainability, Sound Future, Envest, and more to be announced.
Hello, this looks great. I don't see any information about how to attend remotely. Is this film festival only happening the old-fashioned way, in person? We cannot all fly to NYC can we, so how can we watch these films and support the program?
