Rome International Film Festival - Buy Passes today!

November 5th - 8th 2026

“Independent cinema is where the boldest stories are born, and the Rome International Film Festival gives those stories a home. RIFF brings the world to Rome, transforms our historic downtown into a gathering place for artists and audiences, and reminds us that film is not just entertainment. It is culture, conversation, connection, and community.” ~ Seth Ingram
