MIP London Is Launching In 2025 – New Event Will Run Alongside The London Screenings As MIPTV In Cannes Ends
MIP London Is Launching In 2025 – Historic Programming Market Is Relocating From Cannes & Will Run Alongside The London Screenings, Starting Next Year
The action is moving from the Palais Des Festivals to The Savoy hotel and an adjoining space in a seismic change to the international TV calendar, with the historic programming market having been situated in Cannes since the 1960s. The message has been that the new event will not just transpose the usual Palais Des Festivals proceedings to The Savoy and adjoining 1,300 capacity IET London venue, and it will be a more boutique set-up for international distributors to hold meetings with buyers, network, and screen their wares.
