The third Eric's Backyard Film Festival was held on September 9, 2023. Over 120 people attended.
The festival was expanded even more. In addition to 90-minutes of original films, two musical acts performed live, there was one rap performance and a live art installation. The vintage pop-up shop was back - plus three additional vendors! A fully decoraged pre-seating garage space was added. And so was merch! Yes, in 2023, it was possible to buy an Eric's Backyard Film Festival t-shirt (yes, the t-shirts sold out!)
A total of 22 films were submitted. 12 we're played, the first festival where tough decisions we're made to create a stellar program.
Finally, there was a place for young artists in Oakville (and the surrounding area) to showcase their work.
