Wild Rivers Film Festival

In our first two years, the Wild Rivers Film Festival showcased some of the best independent films from around the world while focusing in part on films that were created in and around Oregon's coastal communities. We hope you'll join us in 2025.

THE FESTIVAL
Nightly parties and a variety of professional activities will encourage important networking opportunities for all. The festival culminates with an award ceremony featuring cash & prizes.

THE FILMS
The Wild Rivers Film Festival is an immersive four-day experience that includes four dozen film screenings, industry panels, and workshops that are all geared toward indie filmmakers and adventurous movie lovers.

THE COMMUNITY
Brookings, Oregon is nestled right on the breathtaking Pacific coastline. The people are friendly, the seafood is fresh, and the film history is prolific. We are also the only place in the contiguous United States to be bombed by air in WWII.
