About this event
More than 100 films screen across five days in Charlottesville, with shows at the Paramount Theater, Violet Crown, and Culbreth Theatre. The weekend also includes an Opening Night Gala and a Late Night Wrap Party. Charlottesville sits against the Blue Ridge Mountains about a hundred miles south of Washington, D.C., a college town with a busy arts scene. The CTS trolley runs from UVA central grounds to downtown, which matters when screenings stack across town.
Our take: Leave travel time between the Paramount Theater, Violet Crown, and Culbreth Theatre when you stack films back to back.
Parking
Various parking areas serve the venues, and the CTS trolley runs from UVA central grounds to downtown Charlottesville.
