This year, the Festival returns to the Harkins Scottsdale 101 Theaters located at 7000 E. Mayo Blvd. Phoenix, AZ 85054.

As always, the Phoenix Film Festival will offer its guests the best in independent film from throughout the world, but never resting on their laurels, the curators strive to expand and improve on the festival from year to year. 2010 will mark the premiere of the Opening Night Gala, as well as the return of the hugely popular Phoenix Film Festival Party Pavilion. In addition to night life, there will be fun on hand for the whole family the morning of Saturday, April 10. “Kids Day” will feature fun activities for children as well as family films. When asked about the festival’s growth and success, Festival Director Jason Carney responded by saying, “We're proud that the Festival has become such a large part of the community in such a short time.
