AUSTRALIAN FILMS, OUTBACK SKIES & NINE SPLENDID DAYS
25 JUNE – 3 JULY 2027 WINTON, QUEENSLAND
A nine-day film festival dedicated to Australian cinema in the tiny town known as the Hollywood of the Outback.
NOT YOUR AVERAGE FILM FESTIVAL
Once a year, filmmakers, actors, industry folk and film lovers make their way to a town of around 900 people in Outback Queensland for something rather special.
For nine days and nights, Vision Splendid fills Winton with Australian stories; there are new films and old favourites, conversations with the people who make them, special events, live performances and nights spent watching the big screen beneath a considerably bigger sky.
You might meet a filmmaker over breakfast, continue the conversation over coffee on the main street, then share an evening screening with a few local galahs who have absolutely no respect for cinema etiquette.

The full Vision Splendid 2027 program is still under wraps, with films, special guests, events and ticket information to be revealed as we get closer.
For now, lock in the dates; winter gets busy in Winton and the organised among you will be feeling very smug when accommodation starts filling up.
films are only half the story
Of course there are films, plenty of them; Australian features, shorts, new releases, old favourites and special screenings fill the program from morning through to evening.
But Vision Splendid has never been about sitting quietly in a cinema for nine days. Expect filmmaker Q&As, industry conversations, workshops, live performances, Breakfast with the Stars and special events, plus all the chance encounters that happen when you put a whole bunch of people who love film into a tiny outback town.
