Glasgow Film Festival

       The Glasgow Film festival is the fastest growing film event in Glasgow and has been running for 7 years now. It is held in February over a period of ten days and screens all genres of film including Hollywood Blockbusters and classic Scottish films. The GFF launched in 2005 and is a non-profit organisation aimed at bringing people together thorough the 'culture value and collective experience of cinema'. The  GFF offers screenings, lectures, discussions, festivals within the festival, workshops and the chance to meet filmmakers from Scotland and around the world.

The Glasgow Film Festival combines a fascinating film selection with a collection of fashion, music and art based events bound to thrill visitors of all tastes.  A host of famous Scott's also made appearances, famous directors and actors. This year there were screenings across the city in 15 venues and 250 film showings, the festival attracted people from all over Scotland and even fans from other countries which boosted the number of attendees to over 30,000! Don't know about you, but I'd call that a success!
