Schaffhausen Film Festival

Date
January 14 - 18, 2026

The Schaffhausen Film Festival has long been more than just an insider tip. What once began with a bold idea - the very first festival on the N4 highway bridge - has developed over the years into an integral part of Schaffhausen's cultural scene. In the unique atmosphere of the Kammgarn , visitors experience moving stories, creative perspectives and inspiring encounters with filmmakers.

In a dark room, various red sofas and armchairs serve as movie theater chairs. The big screen reads "Welcome".

Program

The cozy sofa cinema mainly shows independent films in their original language. In addition, the youth short film competition with sponsorship awards, a children's film, films with a musical focus or live film soundtracks enrich the program.

Travel comfortably by bus and train to Schaffhausen for the film festival.
