A safer world? Cinevegas cancels film festival for 2010.Economy continues to hit film festivals
By John Esther
The latest injury to film festivals across America, Cinevegas, "the world's most dangerous film festival" held annually in Las Vegas, NV, will not be held in 2010.
“Given the current economic climate and the pressures it has created, we made the difficult decision to put CineVegas on hiatus for the coming year. CineVegas has become such a well respected film festival, and rather than allow the economy to affect its level of quality we have opted to put the event on hold,” said Robin Greenspun, Festival President.
CineVegas will continue to have a presence in Las Vegas with one off screenings and special events.
The 11th CineVegas Film Festival was held June 10 – 15, 2009 at the Palms Casino Resort and Brenden Theatres in Las Vegas.
