​
The Black Hills Film Festival begins its next decade with BIG CHANGES. Based on feedback from audience surveys, the Board of Directors has selected a new season and new dates, Feb. 20 – 25 for the 2020 Festival. We hope this will allow more people to attend with less competition for your time.
Our Host Cities for the 2020 Festival are:
​
Rapid City Thursday and Friday, February 20 - 21,
Hot Springs Friday through Sunday, February 21 – 23,
Hill City Saturday and Sunday, February 22 – 23, and
Spearfish Tuesday, February 25.
Additional venues may still be added.

We have also changed our online film entry platform to “Film Freeway” and hope to be able to bring you a wider variety of great films from over 800,000 filmmaker subscribers. Entries are open now and we already have over a dozen new films entered. And as always, in addition to great films, we will feature fun and educational activities for audience and filmmakers alike.
