Viborg Animation Festival – VAF celebrates All Things Animated!

VAF believes that animation craft and artists should be celebrated, cultivated, and communicated. The festival offers animation-related film programs, cultural events, and professional conferences through the four tracks: VAF KIDS, VAF FILM, VAF CULTURE, and VAF INDUSTRY. The events are for the broader public, people in the animation industry, as well as potential consumers of animated content.

VAF pushes the boundaries for animation and challenges the audiences and the industry’s perception of what animation is and can be. The festival is used as a scene for the animation medium and its many possibilities. A wide range of attractive, high-quality animation experiences presents Danish and international film culture to the locals in Viborg and interested parties from all over the country.

VAF supports cooperations and efforts to expand the potential within the animation industry across borders and create awareness of the discipline. The focus is on the development of capacity and competencies in the industry to accommodate current and future clients. A specific emphasis is on events supporting, cultivating, and promoting Danish talent.
