Lunchtime Social

HOME - Event Space
Runtime: 60 mins (approx.)

So, you’ve enjoyed all the events the festival has to offer so far. Want to share your impressions with fellow attendees? Meet potential collaborators? Maybe find festival buddies to carry on enjoying the festival with? Or just fancy meeting new people who make or appreciate animation?

Join members of the MAF team for an informal mixer where we will encourage meeting new people and enhancing your festival experience.

Please note this is a free session but priority will be given to pass holders.
