Where heritage meets innovation, where local stories find global resonance

The Tripoli Film Festival stands as a beacon of artistic expression and cultural revival in the Mediterranean-Arab region. Founded with a visionary purpose, the festival transcends conventional entertainment to become a transformative force in reshaping perceptions of Lebanon's second-largest city: Tripoli

Our mission is centered on a deep commitment to cultural enrichment and the celebration of heritage. We aim to cultivate a vibrant cinematic landscape that fosters intellectual discourse and artistic appreciation within the historic fabric of Tripoli. Additionally, we strive to illuminate the city’s extraordinary cultural legacy by showcasing the exceptional talent of local artists on an international stage.

Having successfully celebrated our milestone 11th edition in September 2024, we now prepare for our 12th edition, scheduled for September 18 - 24, 2025. This upcoming festival promises to further elevate Tripoli's position in the international film community while continuing our mission of cultural transformation through the power of cinema.
