The fun doesn’t stop when the movies are over, as the Mill Valley Film Festival offers a full line-up of parties, tributes, spotlights, and live performances for all ages and audiences. Guests can mingle with fellow filmgoers and filmmakers alike at amazing tentpole events like our Opening Night Gala at the Mill Valley Community Center and at our exciting new Closing Night space, Kerner Studios in San Rafael, which was an original production studio for George Lucas’s Industrial Light and Magic.

After all, the chance to enjoy gourmet food and delicious drinks alongside cinematic luminaries like Sam Rockwell, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Ed Norton, Annette Bening and Julian Schnabel isn’t a bad way to spend an evening.
