Media artists from around the world can now enter their work to be considered for the 2026 European Media Art Festival. The online platform is already open at https://emaf.filmchief.com/entry-forms

This year's deadline for entries is 22 December 2025.

We welcome current works in the categories Film (experimental short and feature films), Installation (installative, interactive, spatial or sculptural media art works), and Expanded (performances, live events, or workshops).

Entering works is free of charge.

Our international curatorial team will compile the programme for the upcoming festival from the entries received. Fees will be paid to all artists whose work is selected for the festival. Premiere status is not necessary. Please refer to our regulations for more details on the entry and selection process, as well as technical requirements.

The 39th European Media Art Festival will take place from 22 to 26 April 2026. The exhibition at Kunsthalle Osnabrück will continue beyond the festival, closing on 25 May 2026.

We are looking forward to your entries!
