About the event
Prescott Film Festival: Sweet 16 Edition
Celebrate the magic of independent cinema at the 16th Annual Prescott Film Festival, returning to the cool pines from July 13–18, 2026. This year’s "Sweet 16" celebration features six days of standout "First Look" indie films, thought-provoking documentaries, curated short film blocks, workshops, parties and special events.
Hosted primarily at the Jim & Linda Lee Performing Arts Center (PAC) on the Yavapai College campus, the festival remains true to its mission of "Movies That Move You." Beyond the screen, attendees can engage with visiting filmmakers during Q&A sessions, attend hands-on educational workshops and enjoy festive after-parties. The Centerpiece: a crowd-pleasing "Silent Symphony" at the historic Elks Theater featuring the Buster Keaton silent film classic Go West (1925), filmed in Kingman, AZ and performed with a live score by the world famous Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra.
