About the festival

For six days, the Croisette turns pink and Cannes becomes the beating heart of international series creation. Since 2018, CANNESERIES, the Cannes International Series Festival, has established itself as an unmissable event celebrating series from around the world - fiction, documentaries and, in the future, adult animation - in the iconic setting of the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès and its renowned Auditorium Lumière. Entirely free and open to the general public, the Festival brings together those who create series and those who love them, in a vibrant, creative and festive atmosphere.

International stars, emerging talents, creators, audiovisual industry professionals, series enthusiasts and curious newcomers come together around an eclectic and ambitious program. Competitions across long form, short form and docuseries, exceptional premieres, masterclasses, events and discussions shape the Festival. The program is brought to life by outstanding international Juries and bold, distinctive and popular series that challenge perspectives, inspire reflection and spark the imagination.

CANNESERIES also reaffirms its commitment to industry professionals through CANNESERIES INDUSTRY. For three days, more than 300 French and international professionals from across the series creation industry gather at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes to meet and exchange perspectives on the industry, with the aim of shaping the series of tomorrow. They come together through dedicated Industry Clubs, which form the heart of CANNESERIES INDUSTRY.

True to its vision, the Festival champions an event where boldness, diversity and inclusion are essential, making CANNESERIES a Festival of its time - where every voice matters and where series are celebrated on a big scale!
