    • What is 72 Fest?

      72 Fest is a performing arts organization, which is headquarted in Frederick, MD and provides an outlet for artists to develop new, original works within a 72-hour period of time within the direction of a team-based competition.

      How it Works

      1) Artists form teams, comprised of 1-to-infinity team members, and register on our website.

      2) At the Launch Party, teams will select Secret Criteria, which will be the basis for the short film they will be creating.

      3) Teams are given precisely 72-hours of time to write, rehearse, shoot, score, edit, complete, and turn in their movie.

      4) The weekend after teams complete the Challenge and turn in their film, all of the on-time movies will screen for a packed-out audience at the historic Weinberg theater in downtown Frederick. The movies are judged by a panel of industry professionals, and awards and prizes will be handed out to films that excel in various categories. In the past, prizes have been items such as hundreds of dollars in cash, editing software, production equipment, iPods, etc.
