Open Call for Industry Events 2027

The industry programme, aimed at those working in or studying the film industry, is a key part of Tampere Film Festival. As with the last festival, we are organising an open call for industry events aimed at our accredited guests.

If you are interested in organising an event for our industry progamme, submit your idea using the application form below:

THE APPLICATION FORM 2027

The application form is open until 30 November, 2026.

Tampere Film Festival will select the most suitable events for the 2027 festival from among the applicants. Submitting your idea does not guarantee that the event will take place. Those selected will be notified at the beginning of December, and the professional programme will be published around mid-January.
