6/27 Set the market budget core Badges, travel, stand or table, screenings, entertaining and materials. Agreeing one number now is what stops the stand quietly becoming the whole budget. 3 months before it opens 10 weeks before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Decide the slate Which titles are you taking, and what is the goal for each one? Everything downstream depends on this being settled rather than still being argued about in the taxi. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 8 weeks before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Draw the buyer target list Named companies and named people, ranked, with the titles you would put in front of each. A target list written at the market is a list written too late. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 7 weeks before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Draw the acquisition shortlist What you are looking to buy, at roughly what price, for which slot. Walking a market without a shortlist is how you come home with nothing or with the wrong thing. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 7 weeks before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Line up financing and co-production meetings Gap financing, pre-sales and co-production terms get agreed at markets, not introduced at them. Book the money conversations before the sales ones. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 7 weeks before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Accreditation and travel core Badges, stand or table, flights and beds. Check the accreditation deadlines on this calendar: the early rates close well before the market and the beds go first. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Lock your avails list Final now, not the week before. Every territory, window and holdback checked against the underlying contracts rather than against last year's spreadsheet. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 5 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Sales materials and artwork One sheets, trailers, key art and the deck. Artwork always takes longer than anybody plans for, and it is the one item you cannot fake on the day. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 5 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Book market screenings Screening slots are allocated early and the useful times go first. A screening nobody can reach because it clashes with the opening night is a wasted booking. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 5 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Review your territory sub-agents Where you are not selling direct, confirm who is representing you in the room, on which titles, and on what commission. Overlaps get discovered in public otherwise. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 5 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Confirm territory rights are clean Anything you cannot evidence, you cannot sell. Chase the gaps now, while there is still time to get an answer out of a financier or a previous licensee. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Agree asking prices and walk-away terms Per territory, per window, with the floor written down. Going into a meeting without a number is how a deal turns into three months of email. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Check what you already hold and what expires Your own catalogue first: what is running out, what is renewable, and what you are about to lose. Buying something you already have is not a rare mistake. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Map targets to schedule slots You buy against a grid. Know which slot and which season each shortlisted title is for, because that is the first question your own commissioners will ask. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Scope dubbing and subtitling A global platform pays for localisation on every title it licenses, in every language it launches. It is rarely inside the headline price and it moves the real cost. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Confirm delivery and technical specs What you would have to receive, in what format, with which deliverables attached, and how long your own QC takes. It sets the earliest date anything could actually air. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Line up compliance and clearances Music, archive and talent clearances are what turn a signed deal into a title that cannot go out. Ask about them in the meeting, not after the contract. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Open the meeting book core First outreach wave. Diaries fill about three weeks out and the good slots go first, so the people who send late get the graveyard hour on the last day. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Outreach wave two, confirm screeners Chase the non-responders, and check that every screener link, password and delivery actually works before somebody important tries it and gives up. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Brief the trades on anything you want announced Whatever you want in print during the market has to be with the trade press before it opens. Announcements pitched on day two land after everyone has filed. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Lock the schedule and brief the team core Freeze the meeting grid, print what has to be printed, and make sure everybody knows which titles they are carrying and what they are allowed to agree to. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Write the market up while it is fresh core Who you saw, what they said, what they asked for and what you promised. Three days later half of it is gone and none of it is in anybody else's head. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Follow up every meeting core Inside a week, while they still remember the room. This is where most of the value of going is either collected or quietly thrown away. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Slot the acquisitions into the release plan Every title you bought needs a date, a spend and an owner. Without those three it drifts, and a title that drifts a year is worth less than the one you paid for. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Set the licence windows Start dates, exclusivity and holdbacks agreed now rather than left for the paperwork. Windows settled late are the ones that end up contradicting another deal. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Turn deal memos into contracts Turn what you agreed into signed terms, and get those terms into your rights system while the detail is still in somebody's memory rather than in a napkin photo. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Debrief: was it worth going? Cost against what actually came out of it. This is the note you will want next year when the badge invoice arrives and somebody asks whether you are going again. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Festivals

2/11 Decide what the festival is for A premiere, a buyer screening, a prize run, a press moment or a scouting trip. They need different films, different budgets and different people, so pick one. 5 months before it opens 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Check submission windows and premiere status Premiere status is what most often disqualifies a title. Confirm what submitting here would cost you at every other festival you were considering. 4 months before it opens 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Budget submission and late fees Entry fees, late fees and the shipping and subtitling that go with them. Across a submission season this is a real number that nobody budgets for once. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Prepare screener, stills and press kit Assemble what programmers actually ask for, and read the delivery specifications before you export anything rather than after the first rejection. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Line up publicity A publicist booked six weeks out can place something. One booked the week before can get you a photographer. Decide which of those you are paying for. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 45 days before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Confirm talent travel and availability Directors and cast are the reason a festival slot is worth having. Their diaries close earlier than yours and their agents answer slower than you expect. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 30 days before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Accreditation and travel core Book the badge and the beds. Both get scarce and expensive close to the festival, and festival towns are small. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Invite buyers to the screening A market screening with no buyers in it is an expensive private view. Invite by name, confirm by name, and know who actually came. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Build the viewing plan Which screenings you are actually sitting in, in which order, and who covers the clashes. Programmes collide and the good titles screen twice at most. 3 months before it opens 2 months before it opens 6 weeks before it opens 4 weeks before it opens 3 weeks before it opens 2 weeks before it opens 10 days before it opens 1 week before it opens 5 days before it opens 3 days before it opens 2 days before it opens 1 day before it opens Every week until it opens Follow up press and programmers core Thank the people who showed up and answer the ones who asked for something. Programmers move between festivals and remember who was easy to deal with. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Convert festival interest into deals Festival attention decays fast. Get the conversations that started here into a sales process while the title is still the one people are talking about. 1 day after it ends 2 days after it ends 3 days after it ends 1 week after it ends 2 weeks after it ends 3 weeks after it ends 30 days after it ends 45 days after it ends 2 months after it ends Select your markets Showing Everything Film TV

August 2027 0 markets
Confirmed market dates stop here. 81 markets and festivals
are withheld until their organisers publish. What follows are the
deadlines that feed the next editions.
Questions What is the Molten market calendar? A free interactive calendar of the film and TV markets and festivals from September 2026 to August 2027. You pick the events you attend or track, and the page builds a calendar of those dates, the submission and accreditation deadlines behind them, and a prep runway before each one, then either hands it straight over as a file or sends it to your email as a file and a subscription link.
Which markets and festivals does it cover? 118 confirmed events across 34 countries, from the majors (Cannes and the Marché du Film, Berlinale and the EFM, TIFF, MIPCOM, AFM, Sundance, Venice) to the regional and genre markets. Only dates the organiser has published are listed; an edition that has not announced yet is held back rather than guessed.
How is it different from a list of market dates? A list gives you dates to copy out by hand. This page builds the calendar for you: the events you choose, the deadlines that feed them, and the preparation steps timed before each one, as real calendar entries you can open in Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar.
Does it include submission and accreditation deadlines? Yes. Each market you choose brings its published deadlines with it: film submissions, project and pitch calls, accreditation and early registration cutoffs. Deadlines for the following edition are included, since most fall months before the market itself.
How do I add it to Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar? Choose your events, then either download the .ics or have it mailed to you. The download needs no email address and is a fixed copy of the dates as they stand today. The mail carries the same .ics, which Outlook imports, plus a subscription link, which Google Calendar and Apple Calendar keep in sync so a date the organiser moves updates on its own.
Can I edit my calendar after I have sent it? Yes. Every entry in a subscribed calendar carries a link to your agenda page, where you can remove events, add your own and resend. Google Calendar takes a few hours to show a change; Apple Calendar refreshes on its own schedule.
How often are the dates updated? The list is checked against the organisers' announcements through the year and corrected as they publish. A subscribed calendar picks up a correction on its next refresh without you doing anything.
Who makes the market calendar? Molten Cloud, the rights, royalties and content management platform for film and TV distribution. The calendar is free. Downloading it asks for nothing at all; having it mailed asks only for the address to send it to.
