About the festival
The Toronto Chinese Canadian Film Festival brings together audiences, filmmakers, and the wider community for one weekend each October. Since 2024 we have championed Chinese Canadian storytelling — giving emerging filmmakers a stage and Toronto’s Chinese community a festival to call its own.
The 2026 edition runs October 16–18. Individual film titles and showtimes are announced with the full lineup; passes and single-screening tickets go on sale at the same time.
What’s on
The confirmed titles for 2026, straight from the Studio. The remainder are announced closer to the festival.
