Each year, a growing number of talented Kalamazoo filmmakers, both amateur and professional, take on the challenge of participating in the Kazoo 48-Hour Film Festival. Assigned a genre, prop, character quirk, location, and line of dialogue to use within a short film, participants have just 48 hours to bring their visions to life.

The winning films for 2026, selected in multiple categories, were announced during a public screening at the GQT Kalamazoo 10 Theater on April 23.

During this celebratory event at the KIA, watch the winning films and hear from the filmmakers themselves about their experiences and personal highlights from the festival!
