September 2, 2021—We are pleased to announce that the Giant Screen Cinema Association (GSCA) will hold its next annual Film Expo in Los Angeles on March 8-9, 2022, at the AMC CityWalk IMAX Theatre and Universal City Hilton. The 2022 Film Expo will be the first in-person event hosted by GSCA since March 2020. During the COVID-19 pandemic, GSCA organized the successful Virtual Conference in September 2020, the Virtual Film Expo in April 2021, and is currently at work on the Virtual Conference coming up in September 2021. The Film Expo will feature screenings of new films, films in production, projects in development, and a technical session highlighting the latest giant screen technology. Other programming is still being determined and will be announced as it is confirmed. Registration and film submissions will open in December 2021. GSCA will monitor COVID protocols and plan the event accordingly.
“We are thrilled to be planning this event and look forward to meeting with our friends and colleagues in person at the Film Expo in March 2022,” says GSCA Executive Director Tammy Barrett. “We were grateful to see the high level of participation at our virtual events and how members supported GSCA and each other during the challenges of the pandemic. We are excited that the 2022 Film Expo will be a chance for us to come together again.”
The GSCA Board of Directors and Event Planning Committee are in discussions about the plans for the International Conference and Trade Show for the fall of 2022.
