Submissions for 2020

Now Open on FilmFreeway

Final Submission Date August 10, 2020
Event Dates August 28 to September 6, 2020*

*ATTENTION: Based on recent global events, many of our vendors and partners CAN NOT Guarantee that their business or service will be available to us based in circumstances beyond their control. State and Federal mandates may prohibit them from offering their services.
In response to these developments the AOF MEGAFEST events will offer an Online Event from August 28 - September 1, 2020 and our Live Event in Las Vegas from September 2 to September 6, 2020. Should Vendors, Federal or State leaders close locations at that time, the ENTIRE AOF Megafest Program will be held Online. Thank you!
