Jerome Indie Film & Music Festival Has just been recognized this year as one of the 25 coolest film festivals in the world by Moviemaker Magazine and we couldn't be more thrilled.

Our festival is one of the most original, adventurous and coolest you can imagine. It takes place in Jerome, Arizona (America’s largest ghost town and once coined Wickedest Town in the West). Throughout the four day festival, independent films screen at various unexpected locations which include (among others) historic, probably haunted buildings in Jerome which just happens to be America's largest ghost town such as inside wineries, in funky stilted homes hosted by residents, inside the old high school hallway and on a train that travels through the majestic Verde canyons (this year at night). We thrive on giving our guests an unexpected cinematic ride. We also have local musicians performing all during the weekend, we have the RPM Orchestra perform a live score to a different silent film each year, we have food and wine tastings and even a film fair on Saturday.

To pay homage to the fact the festival takes place in America's largest ghost town, each year we highlight horror films with two short showcases. We do the same for westerns. These are two areas that we put an emphasis on as they celebrate the wild west and also the mystery and ghosts Jerome in known for.

It's the coolest down-to-earth, mile-high fest in the west.

We can’t wait to meet you all on the hill and in the valley.

Join us for year 6 - September 27-30, 2018
