Galas and parties!

The Asheville Film Festival isn’t just a time to see great movies, it’s also a time for parties and galas, and this year is no exception.


The fun starts Thursday (Nov. 8) night, with the festival kick-off, complete with the critically acclaimed film The Savages.  Following the film, ticket holders will adjourn to the lobby and outside atrium of Pack Place for spectacular food provided by Amici, beer and wine. Tickets for this event can be purchased here.

On Friday, there will be an evening with this year’s Career Achievement Award winner, Tess Harper. A special screening of Tender Mercies, which marked the beginning of Ms. Harper’s career with a Golden Globe nomination, will be held at the Fine Arts Theater. It will be followed by a Q&A with Ms. Harper and a reception at Blue Spiral 1. Tickets for this event can be purchased here.

Saturday evening will see the festival’s big event, as the winners are announced and the awards presented at a cocktail reception and exciting awards ceremony. Tickets for this event can be purchased here.


The festival will end on a high-note with a showing of the award-winning film The Diving Bell and the Butterfly followed by a reception with beer, wine and appetizers provided by Amici. Tickets for this event can be purchased here.

More information about any of these parites can be found in our list of events.
