The Seminole Tribe of Florida will host the 2026 Seminole Tribal Fair and Pow Wow from Friday, Jan. 30, through Sunday, Feb. 1, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood, celebrating Native culture through film, music, dance and tradition.

A centerpiece of the weekend is the Native Reel Cinema Festival, which will feature special screenings, tributes and appearances by acclaimed Native filmmakers, actors and artists. Highlights include the 30th anniversary screening of Indian in the Cupboard and the 20th anniversary of Trudell, as well as the final stop of the Sundance Indigenous Shorts Tour. The tour will include a tribute to Robert Redford for his long-standing support of Indigenous voices in film. The program will also showcase short films by Native directors from around the world.

Additional feature-length screenings include Riding Through the Fray, a documentary about roller derby featuring Seminole Tribal member Meredith Bullard, and Remaining Native, a film that has generated strong buzz on the film festival circuit. The festival will also include Q&A panels, meet-and-greet sessions and special appearances by Litefoot, Keith Secola, Tazbah Chavez, Doggface, Michael Spears and others. The cinema festival will conclude with a tribute to acclaimed actor Graham Greene, honoring his lasting impact on Native film and storytelling.

Beyond the Native Reel Cinema Festival, the three-day Seminole Tribal Fair and Pow Wow will feature Native dance and drum groups, live musical performances, alligator demonstrations, and a wide array of Native arts, crafts and traditional foods. Admission is free and open to the public. The powwow Grand Entry will take place at noon on both Friday and Saturday.
