Join the celebration for one of the largest American film festivals in the South at the Cucalorus Film Festival. Cucalorus is recognized by Moviemaker as one of the "Coolest Film Festivals in the World" and one of "50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee" and more. Known for its quirky setting at Jengo's Playhouse and its laid-back atmosphere, this non-competitive festival showcases worldwide films, a diverse selection of stage performances (bold, original productions in dance, music, comedy, and theater), and over 50 Connect Conference events (entrepreneurship-focused panels, speakers, and workshops).
Cucalorus attracts an accumulated audience of over 22,000 cultural travelers who come to celebrate art and connect with peers.
