We are here for our community of creatives and independent filmmakers. 

2020 has not only thrown the film festival community, but our entire country through a loop. A world-wide pandemic, social unrest, an economic downturn, the likes of which we haven’t seen in decades, have impacted us all. Not to mention, filmmaking has been halted in its tracks and all in-person festivals have been cancelled.

With rising COVID-19 numbers in Montana, we could not in good conscience host a Live event that might endanger the health of our beloved audiences, and yet, great challenges call for even greater creativity and ingenuity.

Bozeman Film Celebration is still on!

We are excited to present BZN’s *VIRTUAL* festival - more than 110 films and 40 in-depth filmmaker interviews - to not only those in Bozeman, Montana, but audiences worldwide. 

Of special note, this year BZN will screen renown director Ron Howard’s, “Rebuilding Paradise,” as well as award American actress, singer, and producer Glenn Close the BZN Lifetime Achievement Award.

By purchasing a digital pass for $145, audiences receive our entire virtual catalog of films, intimate interviews with filmmakers and casts, select films from our 2018/2019 festivals, as well as discounts for products and services from our many generous sponsors. BZN’s virtual pass includes more content than has ever been available to BZN audiences. For the first time, the BZN experience will be available to anyone, anywhere in the world, at any time.

VIRTUAL TICKETS CAN BE PURCHASED HERE.

(…and we’ve included 25% discount code for our veterans, first responders, and the Bozeman community: BZN2020)

Your digital pass will unlock the virtual BZN platform on Vimeo. For those unfamiliar with Vimeo, it’s a video-sharing website and app available anywhere through the Internet, as well as Apple TV, Amazon Firestick, cell phones and smart TV’s. On the Vimeo platform, you'll find BZN's virtual catalog, organized for viewing!

Together, we can support the filmmaking community at a time when festivals, premiers, and movie theaters have all but closed their doors. BZN’s 2020 Virtual Festival is the solution, bringing the magic of filmmaking into our own homes!

Thank you and we’ll “see” you in your home theaters soon,
