Presentation & Experience sharing
I would like to get accredited for CANNESERIES INDUSTRY
CANNESERIES Industry, the new B2B program of CANNESERIES, takes place at the heart of the Festival and will be held for its second edition on April 23–24-25, 2026. Born from the conviction that human connection should be at the heart of our series industry, and building on the success of the previous editions of the Writers Club and the Producers Club, this gathering offers a unique format that fosters authentic and constructive exchanges.
For 3 days, within the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes, hundreds of industry professionals from around the world gather to collectively envision the future of series. Screenwriters, producers (drama and docuseries), broadcasters, showrunners, composers, students, casting directors, sales agents, directors, and actors—all come together to represent the full chain of series creation. This global gathering connects creative minds and decision-makers who shape the stories of today and tomorrow. It offers an opportunity to meet your peers while also gaining insight into the realities of other positions, thereby fostering mutual understanding across the creative process.
Participants benefit from a tailor-made program imagined for them (panels, speed meetings, pitching sessions, etc.), while also enjoying informal moments such as lunches, cocktails, screenings, and party. These key moments not only spark ideas but also help build lasting relationships and bring new projects to life.
At the same time, professionals can explore the Official Selection and immerse themselves in the Festival experience (ceremonies, masterclasses, workshops), in a borderless approach that reinforces the synergy between artistic creation and industry matters.
CANNESERIES Industry thus becomes a bridge between inspiration and action—a space for connection and reflection where people share, listen, and create together. Here, opportunities emerge, stories take root, and the industry moves forward, driven by a desire to collaborate differently.
CANNESERIES Industry also includes private sessions reserved for producers, broadcasters composers, screenwriters, and casting directors — the 5 Clubs of the Festival. These clubs create a dedicated space with a limited number of participants, a creative bubble where they can share their current challenges and their vision for the future of their profession. For some, it's also an opportunity to break the isolation often associated with their line of work.

"CANNESERIES was a really valuable experience. The insightful sessions and one-to-one time with writers and producers was especially worthwhile. It’s so important to have a festival that makes space for these connections and conversations."
Julia Fidel
Head of international Fiction Acquisition / ZDF
"For me, CANNESERIES Industry is the top European boutique industry event for series with an exclusive selection of top talent, sessions and programme. The atmosphere is relaxed and inspiring and I love clearing my schedule for only a few days to touch base with great people and get inspired.”
Sébastien Folin
TV Producer (Diana Boss, À la poursuite du Rougail Saucisses) / La Belle Télé
"If the series could be summed up in one word, it would be: collaboration. CANNESERIES understands this well, having built us a beautiful playground. A rare place where we create together, blending desires, languages, and stories."
Larry Bass
Producer (The Miracle Club, Borderline) / Shinawill“CANNESERIES is a great place to meet senior drama executives who are active today in developing and financing series to hear what is working or not in an ever changing world. Also good to see series with the creators/producers on site. All set the beautiful backdrop of Cannes”
