The 18th Annual Dam Short Film Festival Returns in Virtual Format
With last year’s first ever virtual format, Boulder City’s beloved film festival will do it again, offering the full festival experience, including access to 147 short films, live stream events, Q&As with the filmmakers, and more
Launching February 10, 2022, the Dam Short Film Society is proudly keeping the 18th Annual Dam Short Film Festival online as a virtual event. Offering all the great qualities of past festivals – including excellent and diverse programming, filmmaker Q&As, and scheduled virtual events that give audiences and filmmakers the opportunity to mix, mingle and learn about these original stories from around the world – the 2022 Festival remains COVID-friendly and more accessible than ever before.
“We received so much positive feedback on the virtual experience last year and are excited to be able to stay true to our mission of making original, unusual and entertaining short films available to the general public for our 18th Annual Festival,” said Lee Lanier, Dam Short Film Festival Co-Founder and Director of Continuity. “The virtual aspect allows viewers to watch at their leisure, from anywhere in the U.S. at any time of the day or night. We love presenting the festival in person in Boulder City, but the virtual platform allows us to keep everyone safe while the pandemic lingers. We plan to return to the Boulder Theatre in 2023.”
Powered by Eventive, the Dam Short Film Festival’s virtual experience will offer viewers an on-demand screening experience, with tickets sold for entire households to enjoy rather than per person, like in years past. All-access household passes to the entire Festival, as well as household tickets to individual program blocks will be available. A full lineup of live-streaming events will be announced soon.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal named the Festival Best of Las Vegas 2020 Bronze in the category of Best Arts & Culture Event. Throughout its 18 years, Dam Short Film Festival has screened more than 2,500 films – giving local, state, national, and international filmmakers a platform to showcase their films, and audiences the access to these unique and original stories.
