The highly anticipated Fourth Edition of the Red Sea International Film Festival, scheduled from December 5 to 14, 2024, has officially opened early bird accreditation which includes access to the Red Sea Souk (7-11 December) — the largest film market in the region. This essential industry event invites filmmakers, industry professionals, and students to secure their accreditation at discounted rates until September 22, 2024.

Accreditation provides industry professionals with tailored access to a variety of Festival events and facilities, depending on the type of accreditation selected. Participants will also have the unique opportunity to feature in the online guide, offering exceptional exposure and networking prospects. Upon registration, accredited individuals will receive a physical badge upon arrival at the Festival, granting them full access to the wealth of experiences the event has to offer.

At the heart of the Festival is the Red Sea Souk, a dynamic platform bringing together Souk Talks, Souk Talents, and a diverse array of exhibitors from around the world. This vibrant marketplace is designed to be the epicenter of networking, collaboration, and discovery, providing an unmatched opportunity for film professionals to connect, share ideas, and explore new ventures.

Accredited attendees will enjoy access to up to four film screenings per day with a 48-hour priority window for ticket bookings. They will also have comprehensive access to the Red Sea Souk’s programme of Souk Talks and networking events, as well as the exhibitor hall and Souk Talents programme. Press and media professionals will receive similar benefits, including exclusive industry screenings. Students, meanwhile, are entitled to 24-hour priority access to two film screenings per day, alongside access to Red Sea panels, the Exhibitor Hall, and Souk Talents.

Film professionals applying for accreditation to the Red Sea Souk will have even more advantages. In addition to the standard Festival accreditation benefits, they will gain access to the Souk Project Market, industry screenings and Cinando membership. Already known for presenting the best up and coming projects from Africa and the Arab world, for the first time this year, the Project Market opened to applications from the whole of Asia. 24 original projects in development and 8 works-in-progress will be presented to industry during the Souk. 

The Red Sea International Film Festival continues to stand as a premier cinematic event, celebrating the voices of the Arab, African, and Asian regions.
