Traverse City Film Festival

The Traverse City Film Festival is a nonprofit cinema organization in Traverse City, Michigan, founded by filmmaker Michael Moore in 2005. Its summer festival tradition includes independent and international films, documentary and short-film programmes, filmmaker discussions, film-school classes and free outdoor screenings overlooking Grand Traverse Bay. The organization owns and operates the historic State Theatre, restored as a community-based, volunteer-run arthouse cinema in 2007.

The dates of the last summer festival edition are 26–31 July 2022. The organization continues its activities through TCFF Tuesdays, a separate weekly screening programme at the State Theatre with a launch date of 3 October 2023. Curated by Moore, this year-round series presents films from around the world and includes appearances by filmmakers in person or remotely.
