If your film is in the Official Selection
The 21st Marbella International Film Festival runs from 7 to 12 October 2026. Three things to do, in this order.
1. Send us your film details
Your film details, poster, trailer and screening copy are all submitted through your own personal link, which we emailed you when you accepted your place.
Cannot find it? Email info@marbellafilmfestival.com and we will send it again.
2. Send your screening copy
The film shown in the cinema must reach us physically as a DCP. A compressed screener is not a substitute on the big screen.
Post it to: Marbella International Film Festival, 1331 Los Granados Play, Boladilla, 29680 Estepona, Spain. Mark the package “No commercial value”.
The delivery deadline is being confirmed and will be emailed to every selected film-maker directly — please do not wait for it to send your DCP.
3. Book your passes
Official Selection film-makers have their own reduced rates, sent with your acceptance email — they are not shown on this page.
Bringing cast, crew or guests? They book at the public rates below.
The Red Carpet Premiere Experience
A premiere should be far more than a screening — it should be an event.
We offer film-makers the chance to present their film with the glamour, prestige and publicity of an international red-carpet premiere. Our team works with you before, during and after the evening to maximise coverage.
The package includes:
- Pre-festival publicity — press releases and the festival’s international channels
- VIP arrival by luxury limousine for the producer, principal cast and guests
- An official step-and-repeat photo wall designed for your premiere
- Professional photography throughout the evening
- On-camera red-carpet interviews you can use long afterwards
- Reserved seating at the Gala Awards Dinner
- Preferential guest accommodation at the METT Hotel
- VIP Festival Passes for your invited guests
To arrange a premiere, email info@marbellafilmfestival.com.
