Request for Proposals: AIFF Venue Diversification & Technical Feasibility Study

Written By Marcin Modzynski

The Atlantic International Film Festival is inviting proposals from qualified consultants or consulting teams to undertake a Venue Diversification & Technical Feasibility Study in downtown Halifax.

This study will explore alternative venues that could supplement or potentially replace existing cinema screens to reduce AIFF’s long-term dependence on Cineplex Cinemas Park Lane. Building on the Discover Halifax Regional Event Strategy and the 2024 HRM Performing & Visual Arts Venues Study, the project will assess technical feasibility, costs, revenue potential, and partnership opportunities across a range of candidate venues
