DISNEY FILM FESTIVAL

April 28 - 30, 2023

This April, the Peoria Riverfront Museum becomes the Happiest Place on Earth! Join us, for the "Disney Film Festival!" 

The "Disney Film Festival" brings to life the Golden Age of Disney with screenings of beloved classics "Bambi"  (April 29) and  "Sleeping Beauty" (April 30) on Illinois' largest screen, the way they were meant to be seen!

Renowned Disney author and historian J.B. Kaufman will join us for fascinating pre-film talks and post-film Q&As with book signings after each film. Mr. Kaufman is a film historian and author who specializes in Disney animation history and silent films. His books include "The Fairest One of All,"  "Pinocchio: The Making of the Disney Epic,"  and "Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse."
