True art transcends time.

Festival 2024

The 27th San Francisco Silent Film Festival will take place at the historic Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco’s Marina District April 10–14. Twenty-two live cinema programs—beautiful silent-era films with superb live musical accompaniment—at one of San Francisco’s most beloved landmarks!

Food at the Fest

Don’t worry, we won’t make you eat your shoe! Cow Hollow Catering will run a concession stand in the Palace’s lobby selling beverages (including sodas, wine, and beer) and snacks (including sandwiches, fruit and cheese plates, and delectable sweets) throughout the festival. And Cochinita—the Bay Area’s OG Yucatan Food Truck—will be on-site (on Palace Drive) on Friday (April 12) from 5–8 pm, Saturday from 1–7 pm, and Sunday from 11 am–5 pm.

A feast for lovers of classic film and live music that is as elaborate, ambitious, and masterfully mounted as any I've seen.
