The two-day annual HAMILTON MUSIC & FILM FEST hits ‘the hammer’ July 14th and 15th this year – at This Aint Hollywood and Gallery 205 each day respectively – and the organizers promise that this year’s festival will be the biggest and best yet.

The 5th edition of HMFF is set to showcase music of all genres alongside music videos, short films, docs, animations, trailers and more.

A panel of judges will determine winners each night of the festival and distribute a selection of awards and prizes to help out the winners’ next project(s), including: equipment rental vouchers to William F. Whites and PS Production Services, gift certificates to The Source Shop, music videos from HeartstringsTV, and more!

Additionally, every band selected for the music showcase portion of the festival will receive a single-song live music video from their performance at the festival courtesy of the folks at HeartstringsTV.

Music/Film entry submissions are still open until June 1st so if you’re in a band or have recently done some video work, best get your stuff in ASAP!
