About the Newport Beach Film Festival

The Newport Beach Film Festival is a film festival in the United States held in Newport Beach, California, that showcases more than 350 films to more than 30,000 attendees annually.

Established in 1999, the festival features independent films from around the world and the U.S. Since its beginnings, the Festival has presented many acclaimed films, including Crash, Dogtown and Z-Boys, Dust to Glory, Just Like the Son, Joint Security Area, Layer Cake, Sexy Beast, and Spellbound, as well as anniversary screenings of classics such as The French Connection, Sunset Boulevard, and The Outsiders, and the 50th anniversary of the Jim Henson Company.

The festival also pioneered a Community Outreach Program through which they partner with over 30 non-profit organizations in Orange County (California) from various sectors including the arts, health and human services, the environment, education, children’s causes and alumni clubs. The Newport Beach Film Festival Community Outreach Program provides a forum for each organization to further its mission through the medium of film and co-host a film screening during the Festival. Each organization is paired with a film that is likely to attract an audience interested in its cause. With an opportunity to speak to film audiences prior to the screenings and display information at the theater, the groups receive wonderful exposure and a chance to connect with filmgoers, filmmakers, other non-profit groups and thousands of attendee.
