From December 1st to 5th, the Weimarhalle will become the new center for German-language television and streaming productions. Outstanding films and series from public and private broadcasters as well as streaming platforms will be shown. Awards will include the German Academy of Performing Arts Television Film Prize, the German Series Prize, and the 3sat Audience Award.
The move is part of a strategic realignment: The academy wants to expand its sphere of influence and utilize new impulses from the cultural city of Weimar.
For the city, the festival represents a cultural upgrade and new opportunities for the media and events industry. The film screenings are free and open to the public, while the supporting program offers talks, jury discussions, and networking opportunities for the industry.
