To the supporters, patrons, and friends of the Vaughan International Film Festival, 

 

Our festival has been celebrated for bringing the people of Vaughan together. As a community, we acknowledge the accomplishments of young, local, and global filmmakers and share the incredible experience of film. It's what we love to do. 

 

In the interests of our amazing community and in light of guidance from the Government of Canada, to help in minimizing COVID-19's potential impact, we have made the decision to postpone the 8th edition of the Vaughan International Film Festival. Nothing comes before the well-being of our team members, guests, and attendees and we take this step in the hopes of supporting public health. 

 

We look forward to coming back stronger than ever and being part of the renewed, vibrant community we all know and love. 

 

With best wishes for you and your loved ones,

​

Antonio Ienco and Mark Pagliaroli
