The Marché du Film is the world’s leading film market held in Cannes, France, from 12 to 20 May 2026, alongside the Cannes Film Festival. Registration opens on 2 February 2026, with early, normal, and late accreditation periods through April, and onsite registration possible if available.
This is not a competitive call for submissions but a professional industry market open to international participation by active film industry professionals.
There are no genre restrictions; the market includes a wide range of cinema professionals. Accredited participants can attend various programs such as Cannes Docs, Frontières, Goes to Cannes, and Cannes Next, which support networking, pitching, and project showcases.
Accepted formats cover feature films, documentaries, series, and other audiovisual projects, though participation is through professional accreditation rather than direct submission of works.
