The Northampton Youth Cinema Festival is a relaunch of the Noho Kid's Best Fest, Northampton's youth film festival. The festival ran for 17 years prior to it being stopped by COVID-19. Now, the festival is being relaunched by two Northampton High School filmmakers in collaboration with the Northampton Arts Council, as well as Northampton Open Media.
