BIFF 2023 Sponsors

The Barbados Independent Film Festival was created in 2016 to celebrate the opening of the Walled Garden Theatre, located in the adjacent garden to the Barbados Museum and Historical Society.

The Barbados Museum, located at the Garrison, is housed in the former British Military Prison. The prison, whose upper section was built in 1817 and lower section in 1853, became the headquarters of the Barbados Museum and Historical Society in 1930.

Local & Co. dishes up approachable food with transparency in dining. We showcase ingredients sourced from local and regional farms, producers and wild foragers. Our menu is determined by what our farmers have available at the time and what our chefs have managed to gather and preserve in house through the seasons. We recognize sustainability and the health of our oceans, soils and the importance of our food communities and growing local economy in everything we do. We hope you will too. 

Copacabana Beach Club has been a long time venue sponsor of BIFF’s Cinecuisine and other beach screenings. This year it will  once again be the venue for Cinecuisine. Check it out at BIFF and then come back to relax on your beach chair under an umbrella. Swim and snorkel in the beautiful Carlisle Bay.

The Southern Palms Hotel is our longtime venue partner for Shorts on the  Beach. Relax with your toes in the sand, chill under a palm tree, grab a drink or some of their excellent food  and enjoy the show!
