This ticket is valid for the opening night, Saturday and Sunday screenings and the Awards Night.
Across the festival weekend, audiences will experience a carefully curated selection of up to 100 independent films, spanning every genre and style.

Expect powerful dramas, inspiring documentaries, innovative animation, gripping thrillers, and bold experimental films — all created by passionate filmmakers pushing the boundaries of storytelling.

But 2CIFF is more than just a series of screenings. It’s a full festival experience designed to bring people together around a shared love of cinema.

During the weekend you can enjoy:

• Big-screen screenings of selected independent films
• Filmmaker Q&As, panels, and workshops
• Networking opportunities with creatives and industry guests
• Social events celebrating independent film
• A festival awards ceremony recognising outstanding films and talent

*Every selected film will be shown during the festival, with awards presented during the closing celebrations.

2 Counties Independent Film Festival (2CIFF) is taking place from 21 – 23rd August, 2026 and celebrates talent within Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and beyond. The inaugural event will take place at the Sky Room Cinema.
