Limburg Film Festival is an annual festival that took place for the first time in June 2016. The first edition was completely focussed on local films. From 2017 on, the festival will show not only local productions - which will remain the main focus -, but also international ones (if they have a connection to Limburg).

Limburg Film Festival aims to entertain, motivate and inspire her audience. Filmmakers are invited to talk with the audience. Besides screening of films, there will be Q&A's, masterclasses and other activities.

The seventh edition of the festival takes place in June 2023 in Venlo, a city in the Northern part of Limburg (The Netherlands).
