OPENING NIGHT CELEBRATION

A Good Time To Laugh!
Friday, June 1, 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm, Hill House Inn

Exclusive Mendocino Film Festival Member and Sponsor Event

Don your party clothes, leave your cares behind, and join us for our exclusive Opening Night Celebration at the picturesque and historic Hill House Inn on Friday, June 1, from 5:00pm to 7:00pm. This year’s Opening Night Party takes its inspiration from the Friday evening spotlight film Love, Gilda. Revel in friends, film, food, and wine as we celebrate the transformative power of laughter.

Greeted upon arrival with a glass of Roederer Estate sparkling wine, the celebration features inspired cuisine from the best chefs of Mendocino County, oysters by Naka’s Feast Mendocino, cocktails crafted by local mixologists featuring Tito’s Handmade Vodka, iconic beers from North Coast Brewing Company, desserts from A Sweet Affair and Costeaux French Bakery, and a great selection of wines from Mendocino County. Kick off three stimulating days of film, conversation, and entertainment—and hopefully more than a few laughs—with an altogether unforgettable night.

Mingle with celebrities and special guests from the film world at this eagerly anticipated event as we raise a glass to launch our annual homage to the art of filmmaking in Mendocino. After the party, head to the Festival Tent for the comedy/improv show by The Bad Aunties followed by a screening of the film Love, Gilda, or catch one of our other Opening Night films.
