T.H.E. Enterprises, the owner of America’s longest running Hi-Fi show (T.H.E. Show) has announced a new initiative – T.H.E. Film Festival – to be held in conjunction with each of its upcoming Hi-Fi shows.

With the vast expansion into home theater, surround sound, immersive 360 audio, and commercial audio and theater experiences, T.H.E. is proud to support filmmakers, content creators, and musicians alike who make their passions into their life’s work.

T.H.E. Film Festival will be an expansion of T.H.E. Show’s normal operations, which will add a dedicated theater for movie screenings and an awards ceremony. The high-end audio and home theater exhibits attendees have been accustomed to experiencing at T.H.E. Show are not changing.

T.H.E.’s goal is to unite movie creators, movie buffs, audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts in a never before combined exhibition of movie screenings with high-end audio and video equipment.

“T.H.E. has a long history of supporting technology, industry, and art over the past 29 years. What has become evident to us from important ongoing dialogue with our existing and new audiences is that supporting creators of the work we love to experience in audio and home cinema is more vital now than ever. For T.H.E., it’s all about supporting the source. If the creation of new art is stifled, what will we listen to and enjoy or our systems? This is an opportunity for us to serve not just the Hi-Fi and Home Theater community but also the creative community so everyone can reap significant benefits.” remarked Emiko E. Carlin, CEO of T.H.E. Enterprises and President of T.H.E. Show. 

Carlin further stated, “Options in Hi-Fi and Home Theater are becoming more easily attainable, and with that, T.H.E. recognizes a rise in trade shows dedicated to the hobby. While we celebrate the growth of the industry, T.H.E.’s aim is to distinguish our events by expanding beyond the traditional (or typical) trade show experience. Our goal is to serve a diverse range of people, communities, and industries, offering something memorable and special for all who attend a T.H.E. event, without losing sight of what makes HiFi and Home Theater so wonderful. We want to be more than just another show – we are here to enrich entire experiences for enthusiasts and professionals alike.”
