Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki didn’t have to win an Oscar for The Boy and the Heron to secure their place as one of the most celebrated animation studios in history, but it certainly didn’t hurt. Now, GKIDS is reminding all of us what makes Studio Ghibli so special with an impressive line-up of films returning to theaters for Studio Ghibli Fest 2024.

Starting in April and running through December 2024, some of the most celebrated Ghibli films will be on the big screen once again. From the Academy Award-winning Spirited Away to the wholesomely twee and exuberant My Neighbor Totoro, some of the greatest animated films of all time are on this list. If you’ve never seen them on the big screen, you owe it to yourself to make it happen.
