Welcome to the Marbella Film Festival Website

The Marbella International Film Festival brings together artists and their films from all corners of the globe to display their talents to the commercial world.

The Festival is growing in stature and receives continuous worldwide accolade, recognition and support for its contribution to the arts.

The opulence of the Spanish area of Marbella naturally includes the quintessential sophistication derived by art and culture.

Delegates converge to celebrate the Festival over five days, culminating with a prestigious gala awards ceremony to recognize the best films in their category.

Within the film industry, we recognise that identifying potential film funding and gaining access to capital can often be difficult for film artists wishing to embark upon their venture.

We therefore create the opportunity for agents, distributors, film funders and sponsors to share with our talent.

With this in mind, it is our objective to not only provide the necessary start up capital for independent art projects, but also to offer hands-on support concerning all commercial aspects of the venture, making it possible to overcome any obstacles that potentially hinder the artist’s ability to create.
