ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

Every Frame. Every Play.
Full Tilt.

August 28th-29th

What Is Full Tilt?

Full Tilt Film Festival is a new event celebrating the stories behind the game. It blends film screenings, live conversations, and special events to explore how sports stories are told; from documentaries and features to athlete-led and franchise-driven media.

What to Expect?

Full Tilt blends the energy of a film festival with the access and insight of an industry conference. The festival will feature screenings of narrative films, documentaries, and series, alongside conversations with the filmmakers, athletes, executives, and creators who bring these stories to life.

Special events and community programming will extend the experience beyond the theater and into the city.

Why Now?

Sports storytelling continues to dominate entertainment, drawing massive audiences and constant investment across platforms. As athletes, teams, and studios expand into longform media, the demand for authentic, cinematic sports stories has never been stronger. Full Tilt exists to meet that moment.

Why Full Tilt?

“Full tilt” means going all in. It captures the intensity of competition and the creative drive behind great filmmaking. The festival lives at that intersection – bold stories, real conversations, and a city that knows how to show up.
