Dubai International Film Festival

Venue: Madinat Jumeirah, Dubai

Dates: 7-14 December 2016

Apart from being one of the most luxurious cities in the world, Dubai also has a thriving moviemaking industry. In its 13th year, the Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF) is a showcase of some of the world’s best films in one of the world’s prime destinations. The event presents audiences with distinctive and exciting filmmaking from the Arab world and beyond. In 2015 the DIFF made the cut in Condé Nast Traveler magazine’s list of the world’s top film festivals for the second year in a row, reaffirming its rank as a leading international film festival. For more information visit the DIFF official site.



Sundance

Venue: Park City, Utah, United States

Dates: 19-29 January 2017

The Sundance Film Festival in Utah is the place to be in January if you’re an independent, creative, risk-taker, and either create your own films or want to appreciate multi-cultural films. Park City was once a charming mining town, but now boasts a mix of nightlife, shopping and art. You’ve already missed the deadline for submitting your own film, but check the Sundance website in the beginning of May 2017 for information about the 2018 Sundance Festival submissions. The 2017 full program will be available in December and is expected to have dozens of spectacular films, music, and panels. Some of the panels from last year included the “Power of Story” series, which explored the various cultures of storytelling, and Cinema Café, which gave everyday audience members the opportunity to speak with an extensive selection of filmmakers.



Cannes Film Festival

Venue: Cannes, South of France

Dates: 17-28 May 2017

The 2017 Cannes Film Festival will be a once in a lifetime event and you still have time to submit your film! But hurry up and book your private air charter to Cannes, because you only have until February 15 2017 to submit. If you have received a personal invitation to the festival, you’re one of a lucky few, since tickets don’t go on sale and invitations are personal and non-transferable.
