From 4 to 14 August, Locarno Film Festival 2027 runs in Locarno and gathers industry professionals alongside a mixed public interested in international cinema. ## Dates and location for Locarno Film Festival 2027 The festival takes place between 4 and 14 August in Locarno. The span of days allows combining screenings with scheduled meetings and follow-ups on new production and distribution opportunities. ## Who attends Locarno 2027 The event targets the entertainment audiovisual sector and attracts program directors, acquisition managers, independent producers, sales agents and specialized press, together with general cinephile audiences. Companies focused on rights, sales and festival strategy should map which attendee profiles match their catalogue or services. ## Preparing B2B prospecting at Locarno 2027 1. Define priority targets. Select buyers and programmers whose slate aligns with your projects. Prepare concise justification for each contact. 2. Ready your assets. Have synopses, technical sheets and screener links optimized for quick viewing. A compact digital press kit accessible via a short URL saves time. 3. Book meetings through official channels. Send short, clear meeting requests that state availability and the commercial proposition, for example distribution rights by territory or festival premiere options. 4. Show, don’t talk. If technical demos or excerpts matter, ensure reliable playback on a tablet or laptop and provide an executive summary to speed decision making. 5. Follow-up plan. After each meeting, agree the immediate next step whether it is sending materials, scheduling calls or drafting an offer. Converting a verbal interest into a concrete action within days keeps momentum. ## Practical advice for visiting professionals Block time for screenings that let you assess target titles efficiently and reserve slots for meetings. Keep a system to log contacts and agreed actions immediately. That discipline turns short festival encounters into measurable commercial progress. ## Final note and official link If acquisition or co‑production scouting is your objective, arriving with a focused shortlist and fast access to assets increases conversion rates.
