Women X 2023 kicks off tomorrow!

It's the final countdown...

In less than 24 hours, Women X will finally be underway!

Here’s a tease of what we have in store…

LAMB by Sinéad O'Loughlin

🍿 Over the course of the weekend, you can look forward to 10 strands of short films, plus filmmaker Q&As and live podcast sessions.

📚 We've also got an action-packed programme of events, including networking sessions, a book reading with author and filmmaker Sarah Grant, a writers' retreat, and opportunities to get arty and unwind in our festival lounge.

🎉 Once the day's activities have come to an end, the fun doesn't stop – join us for our 2000s film quiz on Saturday evening and our disco-themed awards ceremony on Sunday.

🎟️ It's not too late to buy a ticket, either. Head over to Filmfreeway to grab your day pass or weekend pass today, or pick one up on the door at the Darlington Hippodrome. If you can't make it to the venue, no worries – you can enjoy our short film programme at home with an online pass, too.
