THE HIGHLAND SQUARE FILM FESTIVAL

The Highland Square Film Festival is an annual celebration of Akron's film talent. Established in 2017, the festival aims to bring together a wide and diverse local film scene one weekend a year. Film making workshops, panel discussions, artist spotlights and more are all part of the event which culminates in a short film showcase featuring amateur filmmakers and seasoned pros alike.

The festival will be back for year three in late 2020. Keep an eye on this page for more info regarding event details and film submissions.
