What to Expect in Edinburgh

The Edinburgh International Television Festival is the essential annual event for everyone working in television. Shaping the future of our industry by debating the key issues of the day, the Festival opens doors to learn from the best in the business and build relationships within the TV community.

Founded in 1976 and now in its 34th successful year, the Festival is held annually over the August bank holiday weekend (28-30 August 2009) at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre.

Featuring prominent industry voices, the Festival is packed with over 60 individual sessions covering the most pertinent issues facing the industry from policy to programme making, alongside plenty of fun sessions to make sure the weekend is enjoyable and informative.

The wide ranging programme involves keynote lectures, preview screenings, masterclasses, interviews and networking parties which make for a stimulating Festival weekend.

The Festival is attended by over 2000 delegates from the UK and abroad representing the full spectrum of the industry - from controllers and commissioners to producers, directors, marketers, new media companies, distributors and press.
