VIFFF 2025: 11th Edition in the Heart of Vevey
From October 22 to 26, 2025, the 11th edition of the VIFFF – Vevey International Funny Film Festival will take place. Rooted in the city center, the festival will once again stay true to its convivial and inclusive spirit, inviting audiences to discover fresh gems from the world of international comedy cinema.
Free Open-Air Screenings Under the Stars
Launched with great success in 2024 for the festival’s 10th anniversary, the free Open-Air screenings are back! Each evening, two films will be shown outdoors, facing the lake in front of the Salle del Castillo. To ensure a warm and cozy atmosphere, blankets and hot soup will be available.
New This Year: VIFFF at the Salle del Castillo
For the first time, the festival will move into the Salle del Castillo, hosting late-night parties as well as film workshops designed for young audiences.
A Festive Market Square
The Place du Marché will remain the festival’s lively hub. Under the Grenette, a bar and food trucks will welcome festival-goers, while live concerts set the rhythm of the evenings. As in previous years, the ticket office and information desk will be based at Théâtre Le Reflet. Partner venues Cinérive (Rex 1-2-3 and Astor cinema) are just a short walk away, making the entire event a pedestrian-friendly experience.
Inclusive Ticketing Policy
Committed to accessibility for everyone, the VIFFF has for the past three years offered a flexible and supportive pricing system. For paid screenings, audiences can freely choose between three price levels: reduced (CHF 10), standard (CHF 15), or supporter (CHF 18). Day passes are available for CHF 30, and the full Festival Pass (five days) for CHF 70, with a “supporter” option at CHF 90. A “suspended ticket” scheme also allows attendees to gift or receive an entry. Ticket sales open in early October, alongside the announcement of the full program.
