Laputa: Castle in the Sky — Miyazaki’s 1986 landmark and Studio Ghibli staple
Ghibli Fest, the theatrical revival of Studio Ghibli films, has grown into a decade-long phenomenon. Fans, including families in Austin, Texas, continue to attend yearly rereleases of Totoro, Spirited Away, and Ponyo as demand climbs and box office records rise. The festival has expanded since its 2017 launch, with its biggest years coming after HBO Max streaming made titles more accessible.
