MipTV, the world-renowned event for the TV industry that used to take place in Cannes every April, is making a historic shift to London. MipTV London 2025 is going to take place from February 24-27 at the Savoy Hotel and IET London: Savoy Place adjacent venues in London’s West End. The inaugural event for MipTV 2025 London will be held during the same week as the 2025 London TV screenings.
MIPTV is a key global marketplace for television, focusing on the sale and acquisition of finished programs, content discovery, development, and co-productions across all genres. It serves as a hub for fostering partnerships and exploring new opportunities in the TV industry.
Historic Shift of MIPTV From Cannes to London
MIPTV, which was founded in Cannes over sixty years ago, will conclude its run in Cannes in 2024. The 61st edition, held in April this year, was the final MIPTV in Cannes. The event has faced challenges in recent years, including declining attendance and growing competition from other industry events such as Content London and the French TV festival Series Mania.
MipTV 2025 in London will be free for buyers, with no flat fee required for delegates. Unlike MIPTV, it will not be an exhibition-style market but will focus on networking, screenings, and meetings. The event is designed for international distributors and companies without a presence in London. Although the event is scheduled at the same time as London Screenings, there is no formal partnership between the two.
MipTV London 2025 Trade Fair will be much smaller in scale compared to MIPTV Cannes. While the Savoy Hotel and IET venue can host around 1,300 people, Cannes' Palais des Festivals et des Congrès can accommodate up to 30,000 participants.
Rather than focusing on exhibitions, MipTV London 2025 UK aims to offer international companies scalable, customised opportunities to network and showcase their offerings in a central London location. MIPTV London will also feature an invitation program that provides free access to qualified buyers.
