CHILDREN’S FILM FESTIVAL – IN CINEMA OR STREAM
This years edition of the Children’s Film Festival takes place from 19-25 October 2026. For one week school children from age 1 all the way to age 15 can watch international short films. The screenings take place at Slottsbiografen, Fyrisbiografen and Filmstaden Luxe and are free of charge. Visit Uppsala kommun Utbudsbokning to reserve your seats.
Each programme contains 4-8 short films. The selection of films are made from an educational perspective so that the films can supplement the lessons and be discussed in class after the screening. The festival also provide educational materials that include questions to discuss in class for each programme. Note that all films and film materials will be in Swedish.
This year’s programmes are also available to stream. This has to be booked in advance. You will receive a password protected link to the programme which will be available to stream any time during the festival week 19-25 October.
