The British Film Institute (BFI) has received £1.7m from the UK’s Department of Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) to deliver the 2024 London Film Festival as part of a £77m package of government funding for the UK’s creative industries.
The BFI said the investment is “a huge vote of confidence in the festival and its impact across the UK and internationally. This funding allows our festival director Kristy Mathieson and her team to plan through the 2024 edition of the festival.”
