Hayao Miyazaki’s Studio Ghibli classics and more are coming back to theaters this year as part of the Studio Ghibli Fest, a year-wide event hosted by GKIDS and Fathom Events in U.S. theaters nationwide!
The acclaimed animation event is back in theaters and bigger than ever – highlighting all ten of Hayao Miyazaki’s iconic animated films with Studio Ghibli, as well as the first-ever North American screenings of SPIRITED AWAY: Live On Stage, featuring two separate full performances filmed during the production’s acclaimed run in Tokyo last year. It’s a year of celebrating animation master Hayao Miyazaki with the first-ever nationwide retrospective of his Studio Ghibli works, including several anniversary titles: the 35th-anniversary screenings of My Neighbor Totoro, 15th-anniversary screenings of Ponyo, and 10th-anniversary screenings of The Wind Rises.
“We are thrilled to return to theaters with Studio Ghibli Fest 2023, in continued partnership with Fathom Events,” said GKIDS President David Jesteadt. “Over the past years, it has been incredible to experience the studio’s films on the big screen with fans, and this year’s focus on director and studio co-founder Hayao Miyazaki will celebrate the incredible films one of cinema’s greatest talents.”
“We’re excited to partner with GKIDS and honor Hayao Miyazaki this year by bringing his collective body of work to the big screen.
