ABOUT IOWA CITY & CORALVILLE

Iowa City is the only American city holding the UNESCO City of Literature designation. Home to The University of Iowa and the famous Iowa Writers Workshop, this town of around 67,000 is part of the growing Iowa Corridor which includes Coralville, North Liberty, Cedar Rapids and Marion.



It's easy to get to Iowa City because the city is located at the crossroads of two major highway systems: the east-west Interstate 80 which crosses the breadth of the continent, and Interstate 380/Highway 218, known as the Avenue of the Saints because it connects St. Paul and St. Louis.

Our flagship venue, the Englert Theatre, is on the National Register of Historic Places. With a compact, pedestrian-friendly, and historic downtown, Iowa City is a perfect spot for an independent film festival. The festival also uses the Iowa City Public Library which has superb facilities, and the next-door Sheraton Iowa City and the ultra-modern boutique hotelVetro.
