Eurocine Moves from Munich to Budapest for 2026

Eurocine, recently rebranded from Euro Cine, will be holding its fifth edition in Budapest on 8–9 May 2026 at the Hungexpo Exhibition Centre. The event brings together film, television, and emerging screen formats, with a program that combines screenings, a trade show, and a symposium. Let’s look at the details of this event!

In case you’re not familiar with this symposium, Eurocine is an industry gathering that combines a technical trade show, professional training, and curated screenings. It creates a space that covers both the craft and the business of filmmaking. The 2026 edition will run over two days, with seminars, presentations, panel discussions, and masterclasses. Here’s a look at where Eurocine 2026 will be held:

Symposium focus

The symposium program has not yet been released, but previous editions give us an idea of what to expect. In 2025, discussions centered on AI in cinematography, mixed reality, metadata tools, and ways to manage costs. The upcoming edition is likely to revisit these themes, with additional attention on areas like sustainability and virtual production.

Screenings and Expo Hall

Alongside the symposium, Eurocine will screen short films, documentaries, and new creative work from across Europe. Some of these sessions will include Q&As, so audiences will have the chance to hear directly from the filmmakers. Out on the show floor, visitors can get hands-on with the latest cameras, lighting, grip, and post-production tools. To get a feel for the event, take a look at the recap of Eurocine 2025:

From Munich to Budapest

Previously based in Munich, often running in parallel with Filmfest München, Eurocine’s move to Budapest is a change of backdrop. It will continue to build on the event’s tradition of connecting with regional and international film communities, while still drawing a broad audience from across the industry.
