DENVER (Thursday, March 3) –STUDIO GHIBLI FEST is back in theaters this spring with a new slate of timeless animated classics for 2022 – kicking off with 25th-anniversary screenings of the epic historical fantasy Princess Mononoke. Written and directed by Academy Award®-winner Hayao Miyazaki, Princess Mononoke held Japan’s box office record for domestic films for four years until it was unseated by another STUDIO GHIBLI film, Spirited Away.

STUDIO GHIBLI FEST 2022 will highlight seven beloved films from the acclaimed studio, including the aforementioned Academy Award®-winning masterpiece Spirited Away, the Oscar®- nominated fantasy epic Howl’s Moving Castle, and the critically acclaimed Ponyo. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, The Cat Returns, the fantastical adventure where the Baron from Whisper of the Heart returns to the big screen. Rounding out the series, the intimate and timeless drama Only Yesterday, from Academy Award®-nominated director and Studio Ghibli co-founder Isao Takahata joins this year’s spectacular lineup, in its first-ever nationwide theatrical release in North America. STUDIO GHIBLI FEST 2022 will run in U.S. cinemas throughout the fall.

“The team at Fathom Events is thrilled to kick off Studio Ghibli Fest for the fifth time,” said Fathom Events CEO Ray Nutt. “We’re not only excited to bring these cherished films to the big screen for dedicated fans of animation but we’re also proud of our long-standing relationship with GKIDS. It’s going to be a great series!”

Each event will be shown in both original Japanese and English dubbed versions and will include exclusive bonus content.  Tickets for STUDIO GHIBLI FEST 2022 can be purchased online beginning Thursday, March 3, by visiting FathomEvents.com, GhibliFest.com or at participating theater box offices.
