Championing Cinematic Artistry Since 2007

The Universal Film Festival has been celebrating cinematic artistry since 2007, fostering an inclusive environment for filmmakers at every level. Our commitment to promoting independent voices is reflected in our extensive reach, with over 230,000 followers and 5,000 publications distributed globally, making us a significant player in the film festival circuit.

A Unique Showcase of Local Culture

Each year, we host an array of events designed to enrich the festival experience, including panel discussions, Questions & Answers sessions, and our unique feature of Kansas City, including the efforts of our sponsors that enrich the community.

This initiative not only highlights the creativity of artists and businesses but also provides a platform for cultural exchange and collaboration among participants.
