The 18th edition of Sensoria, the UK’s festival of film, music and digital, will take place in Sheffield from 2 – 5 October 2025.
There are no specific themes, we’re open to all ideas but aim to provide a unique, inspirational experience for our audiences.
We present live music and films and also welcome proposals for installations and exhibitions that would work within our film and music focus.
The deadline is 9 February 2025. There is no entry fee
FILMS
Sensoria is looking to present music documentaries, music-related biopics, fiction features, or short films with innovative soundtracks or scores and truly exceptional music videos. Films should have been completed after 2022.

Sensoria is looking for original new bands and artists, especially (but not exclusively) those whose performance includes innovative, exciting use of visuals.
The festival also regularly presents live soundtracks/scores to films.
* Please note, Sensoria is not a standard music festival – we programme events at site-specific venues and locations.
