The Palić Film Festival  was founded by the Subotica Municipality in 1992. From a small and unpretencious  Palić Film Nights, through serious attempts in creating an truly regional festival, it has grown  into an important venue on the map of  European film festivals. From the 2003 tenth festival edition,  Palić Film Festival became a festival of the European films, and at that same year, it was granted membership in the European Co-ordinaton of Film Festivals. This idea was vindicated over the following three years, and nowadays the Palić European Film Festival is one of the most significant festivals of the region and one of the few in the world with 100% European content.
The Festival takes place anually, in July, and the awards presented are: Alexandar Lifka, Golden Tower, Palić Tower, Underground Spirit and Special Award of the Jury.
