Wild Rover Film Festival

Wild Rover Film Festival is for the wanderer. Whether you're wandering around this world, another world, in the present, the future, or the past. Wherever you choose to wander, tell a story about it.

Wild Rover is pleased to present a weekend of screenings, panels, networking events, and more! All screenings will be held in The Brewery, which seats 130 people with a 120" screen & a cinema-grade sound system.

Networking happy hours will create an atmosphere for local & global filmmakers to connect over a pint of craft beer, or fresh Fish & Chips. Specifically, we will be hosting "Afternoon Teas" on each day where filmmakers & fans can chat over a cup of tea, scones, and finger sandwiches. Opening night will be accompanied by a panel & an awards ceremony.

This year, Wild Rover Film Festival will re-direct all submission fees to Light Inside Cinema; a veteran-led nonprofit, built on the belief that powerful storytelling can change lives—both for businesses and for the veterans they employ. Light Inside Cinema is made up of experienced filmmakers who have served in the military.

Our goal is to work with Light Inside Cinema and raise enough money to...

A) Film 1 Commercial for a Veteran-owned business to premiere at WRFF 2026

B) Film 1 Short Film, using an ex-military cast & crew, to premiere at WRFF 2026.

In the past, we supported Troop Rewards, Operation Encore, Operation Song, Operation Code Vet, & VETPAW.
