More Information
Organized by: Yikes! Film Festival

YIKES! Film Festival is a two day celebration of everything horror, sci-fi, fantasy, thriller, mystery, experimental, b-movie, and more!

Above all our festival is focused on FUN for the attendees. Think less of a red carpet and more watching movies with your friends, or having drinks at your favourite pub.

Each evening will include viewings of the nominated films. Breaks will be provided throughout the program to allow for mingling, drinks, bathroom breaks, giveaways and announcements.

After the film portion of the program, we will cap off each night with live music from some incredible local artists and bands! We have curated an experience for film fans to connect and celebrate the wonderful medium that is film, all while having a good time. Food and drinks also available!

Your daily ticket gets you:

  • Access to the Festival
  • Film Screenings
  • Live Music
  • Exclusive Event Vendors
  • Exclusive Event Merchandise

Once you have entered the event, you are free to come and go as you please. Whether you want to watch one film, watch all of the films, or watch a couple and come back for music later on – it's up to you!
