2026 edition announced in Budapest and fresh rebrand unveiled

Jul 25, 2025 | News 2026

Eurocine, the international celebration of the moving image, is proud to announce that its 2026 edition will take place in Budapest.

Now rebranded simply as Eurocine, the event marks a major evolution, expanding beyond cinema to include immersive formats, television, and emerging screen technologies. Eurocine becomes the European destination where film, ideas, and innovation meet.

Each year, Eurocine partners with local film commissions, schools, and institutes, creating a city-specific experience that reflects both regional identity and wider industry trends.

The 2026 edition in Budapest will feature curated screenings, a symposium of panels and workshops, an industry-focused expo, networking opportunities, and the Eurocine Awards spotlighting emerging international talent.

From cinematographers to producers, editors to sound designers, EurocCine celebrates every craft behind the screen. It offers a city-hopping platform where Europe’s screen industries connect under one creative roof.

Claire and Rob Saunders, co-founders of EuroCine, commented on the rebrand and the choice of Budapest as next year’s host city:

“For the 5th edition of Euro Cine, we are so excited to heading to Budapest.  Whilst our time in Munich has been fantastic, our plan was always to move around Europe. We are happy to say that we will still be working closely with our partners from Germany, including BVK, and the supporting media partners, whilst also expanding our partner network with our new hosts.  Dates and venue will be announced in the coming weeks, including more information on the brand evolution.  We look forward to making Budapest the go to destination for industry in 2026.  Keep updated by visiting our website and social media platforms”
