Three Rivers Film Festival

The Three Rivers Film Festival (3RFF) is the oldest and largest film festival in the Pittsburgh region. Now in its 39th year, this prestigious fest includes American and foreign dramas, comedies, documentaries, and more. In addition to film screenings, there are Q&As with cast and crew, well-attended screenings, awards, and networking events including a filmmakers’ lounge and after parties. Passholders for this year's 3RFF will also be able to attend a filmmaking conference of workshops and discussions with industry pros that will take place at 3RFF's partner festival, Pittsburgh Shorts, running from November 18-21st. Now part of the Film Pittsburgh family, the Three Rivers Film Festival will continue its prominent role in bringing people together to share the power of independent film. Thanks to Covid-19, the 2020 festival was presented virtually as part of a combined Fall Festival. But we’re anxious to get back to normal and plan to present 3RFF in November 2021 in the theater if it’s safe to do so. If the festival must be presented virtually again, we will update this listing and contact filmmakers by October. Either way, the show will go on!
