The Love Is Film Festival is a new, annual pop-up film festival taking place from 24th – 26th April 2026 across multiple spaces at Urban HQ. The festival explores love as a complex, universal and deeply human experience, using cinema to create connection, conversation and shared emotional experiences.
The festival pass gives you access to the main programme of activities* across three days, including 6 feature films, 2 short film programmes, local spotlight, reception party and networking.
If you would like to include the journalism workshop on the Thursday please see our Festival Pass Plus events page.
If the festival pass isn’t for you, there are tickets available for the individual screenings and events as a single ticket.
Please see our schedule of screenings and events below for what is included in the Love Is Film Festival Pass. You can toggle between days to view a comprehensive list of events.
*The Festival Pass does not include the Thursday workshops or the children’s events.
