About
the festival

CANNESERIES has been celebrating series from all over the world for 7 years and brings together those who make and love them in the mythical setting of the city of Cannes and its magical Palais des Festivals. Carried by a team of enthusiasts, the festival acts as a platform, and is completely free and open to all.

CANNESERIES is a celebration, creative and chic, with a unique style, both pop and joyful. During 6 days, one can cross path with the greatest international stars, many screenwriters and all those who are part of the series world, right beside our prestigious partners, on its now famous pink carpet.

CANNESERIES’ program is eclectic and generous, with an Official Selection, for long form, short form series and docuseries submitted to exceptional international juries. Its program also includes a parallel selection bringing together very diverse audiences and series fans. It finally includes talks and conferences allowing people to meet creators and talents from all over the world and from the sharpest to the most popular series, who question and make us think but also dream.

Building on the success of the first professional events launched a few years ago (CANNESERIES Writers Club and Producers Club), the Festival CANNESERIES will develop, under the brand new name CANNESERIES INDUSTRY, 6 clubs focusing on the different sections of the series industry: screenwriters, producers of both fiction and documentary series, broadcasters, music composers, technicians, casting directors, students.These professional Rendez-Vous are curated by our team as tailor-made events, with a limited number of international participants. The aim of these meetings is to create links and excitement between participants, who often have solitary jobs, to increase their 360° knowledge of the industry, and to create new opportunities for everyone, with hopefully the beginning of stories to be written at CANNESERIES!

Whether you are a professional, talent, partner or member of the general audience, CANNESERIES is a unique experience at the very heart of the series world.
