Film. Conversation. Celebration.

The 2026 Film Insider Series brought the Festival experience to life in a more intimate setting as part of our 25th Anniversary year.

Throughout the four-part summer series, film lovers came together for advance screenings of films ahead of their theatrical release, along with filmmaker conversations and thoughtfully designed evenings centered around film and community.

Each event featured a pre-screening cocktail reception with drinks and bites, followed by a private screening and post-film gathering with dessert, champagne, and conversation.

Thank you to everyone who joined us this summer. We look forward to continuing the celebration at the San Diego International Film Festival, in October. See you there!
