2026 Fall Film FESStival
The 2026 Fall meeting of the American Rhinologic Society will be held in Los Angeles on October 15-17, 2026. Once again, we will be featuring the annual Film FESStival on Friday, October 16, from 12:15-1 pm featuring the most educational, unique, and impressive videos of cases, complications, and challenges submitted by the membership.
This year’s competition will again feature 2 submission categories: rhinology fellow submissions and open submissions from the membership. The top 3 films in each category will be shown at the FESStival and discussed by a live panel of experts. Filmmakers are invited to introduce their films and answer questions. A grand prize will be awarded in each category.
VIDEO SPECIFICATIONS for both categories:
- A maximum of 3 minutes in length
- A maximum of 300 MB in size
- Should contain audio, narration, etc.
- Please convert your videos to MP4 format prior to submission
- Filmmakers must specify to which of the two competitions they are submitting (Rhinology Fellow vs Open).
- The videos will be rated equally on rarity of pathology, technical complexity, novelty of procedure, educational value, and production quality.
- Do not place any identifying names or institutions in the video itself, or any patient identifiers (names, DOB, etc. - especially on imaging studies; if you show the face, please indicate that permission was obtained).
- Do not place any surgeon or fellow names in video.
- Attendance at the Fall Meeting is Mandatory if your video is selected in the top 5.
