“The excitement and buzz that has been generated since we announced the return of the Savannah Film Alliance Honors Gala has already risen to unprecedented levels. The return of this event is a true testament to the resilience of the local entertainment industry and the determination of its members to keep moving forward. I can’t wait to honor some truly deserving individuals once again during an unforgettable, magical night of fun and entertainment,”
–Charles Bowen, founder of the Savannah Film Alliance

The event will be held at Victory North located at 2603 Whitaker Street, Savannah, GA 31401.

Free parking is available on several cross streets nearby and there is a paid parking lot directly across the street.

The entertainment industry has become one of the strongest pillars of the Savannah economy. When film and television productions come to town, their economic impact reaches far beyond a large amount of direct local hires. Productions utilize the services of almost every industry in town during their stay. The purpose of this night is to recognize and honor those individuals behind the scenes that have contributed greatly to the industry’s growth and to making Savannah one of the world’s premier filming destinations.

● Savannah has developed a reputation as an excellent film destination globally and has been named a top three “Best Small City to Live and Work as a Moviemaker” by MovieMaker Magazine nine years in a row.

● With the Georgia tax credit and Savannah’s additional tax incentives offered by SEDA, the number of productions filmed in the Savannah area reached an all-time high of 145 in 2022.
