Film Noir Fest 2026

Film Noir UK invites you to indulge in another weekend of danger, desire and despair with Film Noir Fest 2026. Set in the heart of Weston-super-Mare, Film Noir Fest is the UK's only film festival dedicated to showcasing the many aspects of film noir and classic crime films on the big screen!

Spread over the course of one weekend (30th October - 1st November), at Weston’s famous Plaza Cinema, Film Noir Fest gives audiences the option to see a wide selection of 20+ films on two separate cinema screens.

You can find a good chunk of the line-up on the festival website including special strands looking at 'Boxing Noir',‘1946: The Year of Cinema’, 'Ida Lupino Part II: Noir Filmaker', 'Horror Noir' as well as 'International Noir' which this looks at Spanish Noir from the 1950s and 1960s and much more.

Don’t forget to book your festival passes sooner rather than later as they are limited; plus you get plenty of film noir goodies with your pass including the festival tote bag, a copy of the festival catalogue and special discounts.

Limited Early Bird Festival Passes are now on sale so we recommend purchasing them sooner rather than later.

Film Noir Fest is presented in collaboration with BFI Audience Network, Merlin Cinemas and Film Noir UK.
