Tees Valley International Film Festival

11/09/2026

📆 Tomorrow marks precisely two months until the ground shakes and the eyes of the world turn upon the Tees Valley when TVIFF 2026 begins at ARC Stockton.

📣 To make sure we get the message to the masses Michael enjoyed a meeting with ARC marketing gurus Chantal Taylor and Simon Shaw followed by a sumptuous Pay What You Decide lunch.

👏🏻 The fact that ARC provide top class meals on a PWYD basis is more proof of their commitment to the people and the arts in the Tees Valley. We’re so proud to be partners with them.

🍿 In two months and one day from now, the fifth edition of the greatest celebration of creative media the world has ever known will begin.

For Ghost Train, a major outdoor spectacle marking 200 years of passenger rail with fire, music, performance and community, we commissioned videographer Ian Paine to produce a short documentary on the making of the production.

We're now thrilled to say, this film has been shortlisted in the Tees Valley International Film Festival documentary category, and will be presented at the festival at ARC in Stockton later in the year.

Congratulations to Ian Paine for producing a documentary that encapsulated the production so well, and shone a light on the experts and creatives behind the scenes that made the production what it is, an event that "will be remembered fondly and proudly by all who came." - Stockton and Darlington 200 Festival Director, Niccy Halifax

Ghost Train was commissioned by Darlington Borough Council, Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council, and S&dr200 and was brought to life through two years of collaboration between Avanti Display and Walk the Plank.
