New York, NY (September 27, 2022) – Film at Lincoln Center thanks the many corporate partners of the 60th New York Festival (NYFF), and celebrates the most robust corporate sponsor support in the festival’s history.

FLC President Lesli Klainberg said, “We are honored by the outpouring of support from the corporate community for our historic 60th edition of the New York Film Festival.  That so many disparate industries have come together to herald our festival is not only gratifying to our organization and our filmmakers, but it reaffirms our partners’ commitment to supporting film culture and the ongoing mission of Film at Lincoln Center.”

Many of NYFF’s corporate partners are presenting the curated programs that define the festival:

  • HBO is sponsoring NYFF60 documentary features and the presenting partner of NYFF Talks.
  • Campari®, the Official Spirits Partner, is presenting the Opening Night selection, Noah Baumbach’s White Noise; the Campari Red Carpet – NYFF60th Edition specialty cocktail was artfully crafted by Jessamine McLellan of the Campari Academy in celebration of NYFF’s 60th

Presented by Film at Lincoln Center, the New York Film Festival highlights the best in world cinema and takes place September 30–October 16, 2022. An annual bellwether of the state of cinema that has shaped film culture since 1963, the festival continues an enduring tradition of introducing audiences to bold and remarkable works from celebrated filmmakers as well as fresh new talent.

As part of its 60th anniversary celebration, the New York Film Festival will offer festival screenings in all five boroughs of New York City in partnership with Alamo Drafthouse Cinema (Staten Island), BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) (Brooklyn), the Bronx Museum of the Arts (Bronx), Maysles Documentary Center (Harlem), and the Museum of the Moving Image (Queens). Each venue will present a selection of films throughout the festival; a complete list of films and showtimes will be announced later this month.

FLC invites audiences to celebrate this milestone anniversary by reflecting on their NYFF experiences with our NYFF Memories survey and by taking part in our Letterboxd Watch Challenge.
