SeriesFest 2025 | April 29- May 4 | Sie FilmCenter, Denver

SeriesFest: Season 11 will take place in Denver, Colorado, from April 29 to May 4, 2025, celebrating the art of independent episodic storytelling. Since its founding in 2015, SeriesFest has established itself as a premier festival that attracts industry professionals, independent creators, and TV enthusiasts from around the world. The festival provides a unique platform for showcasing new voices and innovative television content.

The event showcases the best new pilots from across the globe by both seasoned and emerging content creators in an international, juried competition. As the Los Angeles Times put it, SeriesFest aims “to give television its own Sundance.”

The opening night will be held on April 29 at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre, featuring a special performance by Amy Schumer & Friends. This highly anticipated event promises a night of laughter and top-tier entertainment, setting the stage for a dynamic week of screenings, panels, and networking opportunities.

The festival’s screenings will take place at the state-of-the-art Sie FilmCenter, with additional programs and events hosted at various Denver venues such as Hotel Clio Denver Cherry Creek and the breathtaking Red Rocks Park & Amphitheatre in Morrison. SeriesFest is currently exploring expanded opportunities and partnerships to enhance programming, discussions, and networking events that bring together its growing community. The festival is also proud to continue its collaboration with the Denver Film Society.

Throughout the festival, attendees will have the chance to explore independent pilot screenings, innovation talks, industry panels, workshops, and exclusive networking events. SeriesFest serves as a crucial launchpad for independent creators to present their work to key decision-makers in the industry, including network executives and production companies.

One of the festival’s highlights is the SeriesFest Soirée on May 2 at Asterisk, where Carnival Films, the production company behind Downton Abbey, Day of the Jackal, and All Her Fault, will be honored for its outstanding contributions to television storytelling.

Another standout event of Season 11 is Fashion in Focus, which will pay tribute to HBO’s acclaimed series The White Lotus. Costume designer Alex Bovaird will receive the Excellence in Costume Design Award for her remarkable work across the show’s three seasons.

Beyond the festival itself, SeriesFest is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting episodic storytellers throughout the year. With educational programs, initiatives for underrepresented voices, and career development opportunities, SeriesFest continues to foster a global community of creators.

For those eager to attend, festival passes are already available for purchase, offering exclusive access to some of the most engaging events of the festival.

With a diverse lineup of screenings, discussions, and networking events, SeriesFest: Season 11 remains a must-attend event for anyone passionate about television and episodic storytelling.
