Melbourne International Animation Festival

The Melbourne International Animation Festival is a forum that brings together animators from all over the world.

These animation works are selected from recent and historical releases’ creme de la creme. The annual event is an eye-opener for players in the animation industry and offers an engaging and insightful experience for those who attend.

It is not all competition at the festival, as other works by promising animators are also displayed. What is interesting to note is that the festival celebrates veterans in the field and the amazing studios that help create these mind-blowing works of art.

Visitors are interested in submitting a piece of work; check out the film submission deadlines on the festival’s website. Typically, this is announced well in advance to allow interested parties to make sure they have sufficient time to submit their work.

Spectators of the Melbourne International Animation Festival can make plans by purchasing advance tickets online or in person.

Spectators can purchase a festival pass, a mini-pass or a single ticket, depending on how many times they wish to attend the Festival. The festival program varies slightly from year to year but generally follows a similar pattern.

There is often an opening night gala screening, usually on the first day, which whets the audience’s appetite for the pending works to follow. The opening night gala is very popular, so tickets should be booked early to avoid disappointment.
