Yofi Fest

YoFiFest was awarded the Best of Westchester's Best New Film Festival and recently named one of the 39 Most Notable Events by Westchester Magazine. We were also named as one of the top 10 hippest things about Yonkers when Yonkers was dubbed Hippest Town by lohud.com/The Journal News. We were also voted one of the top 100 film festivals by filmmakers on Film Freeway over 10 times! The festival offers a full schedule of screenings, workshops and parties that celebrate the independent, artistic spirit from around the world, and right in our own back yard. We present all types of work, including feature films, short films, documentaries, animation, music videos and student work. Our always popular "mini film school"​ will be back, with lectures, workshops and panel discussions hosted by top film and television industry professionals. Each day has receptions and parties where attendees will get the chance to mix and mingle and talk about movies. In short, the festival offers something for everyone. ​ We're all about audiences and filmmakers connecting so in addition to lots of great movies, hands on workshops and our “mini film school”, we have plenty of parties, networking events, Q&As, meet and mingles, and other social opportunities to engage with your fans and fellow filmmakers and build contacts for future collaborations. Filmmakers whose films are screening are encouraged to attend and receive an All Access VIP Pass, which allows free admission to the entire festival and all events. Life long friendships and partnerships have been made among our attendees!
