Europe loves European Festivals

A privileged place for meetings, exchanges and discovery, festivals provide a vibrant and accessible environment for the widest variety of talent, stories and emotions that constitute Europe’s cinematography.

The MEDIA Programme of the European Union aims to promote European audiovisual heritage, to encourage the circulation of films outside their own borders and to foster audiovisual industry competitiveness.

The MEDIA Programme acknowledges the cultural, educational, social and economic role of festivals by co-financing more than 90 festivals each year, programming more than 20 000 screenings of European works to nearly 3 million audience across Europe.

This year the MEDIA programme is celebrating its 20th Birthday so we are especially proud to look back on how much the European film industry has developed over this period, and to stress our continued commitment to supporting the EU film industry in the future.

MEDIA is pleased to support the <insert edition> edition of the <insert festival name> and we extend our best wishes to all of the festival goers for an enjoyable and stimulating event.
