Our four-day pedestrian-friendly festival offers a slate of more than 80 films cultivated from a diverse selection of genres, plus compelling panels, lively workshops and of course, parties!
Coronado’s perfect weather and close proximity to Los Angeles made it a favorite go-to spot for Hollywood pioneers such as Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin, followed by the likes of John Wayne, Billy Wilder and Marilyn Monroe. Most recently, Tom Cruise filmed scenes for “Top Gun: Maverick” in Coronado.
A time-honored holiday tradition brought to Coronado by the boating community. Over 80 lavishly decorated boats that dazzle and entertain crowds along the Coronado Ferry Landing and Tidelands Park.
