BAFTA's Film Gala is a magical evening dedicated to raising funds to support our belief that everyone with talent, regardless of background, deserves the chance to shine.
After taking a break in 2018 the Film Gala is returned in 2019 on Friday 8 February, bigger and brighter, in a new location at the iconic Savoy Hotel near Covent Garden.
The money raised at the Gala enables us to help a wealth of new and emerging talent breakthrough into the film, games and television industries and support our mission to support the very best creative work.

“Today, more than ever, young people and career starters need to be nurtured and supported to achieve their potential and succeed. As a leading charity in its field, BAFTA is perfectly placed to make a difference.” BAFTA’s President HRH the Duke of Cambridge
