Economic impact

Collaborating with the BCN FILM FEST is a unique opportunity to showcase your brand on the international film scene. The Festival is a loudspeaker that will help you to position the image and values of your company in a cultural framework of excellence.

The Festival has grown exponentially since its first edition, becoming a key event in Barcelona's cultural agenda and has gained the trust of the local public, which increases year after year. All this is possible thanks to the close relationship with multiple sponsors, which has allowed us to grow in each new edition.

International celebrities such as Meg Ryan, Richard Linklater, Barbie Ferreira, Ralph Fiennes, Wim Wenders, Susan Sarandon, Omar Sy, Johnny Depp, Richard Gere, Jeremy Irons, Isabelle Huppert, Mike Leigh y Oliver Stone, among others, have walked the red carpet at the BCN FILM FEST over the course of its nine editions. And alongside them, leading figures from the Spanish cultural scene such as Eduard Fernández, Dani de la Orden, Macarena García, Belén Rueda, Enric Auquer, Leticia Dolera, Fernando Trueba, J.A. Bayona, Belén Funes, Álex Brendemühl, Joan Manuel Serrat, Isona Passola, Agustí Villaronga, Carmen Machi, David Verdaguer, Natalia de Molina, Karra Elejalde, Laia Costa, Sergi López, Emma Suárez, Paco Tous or Vicky Peña, among many others.

Every year, more than 200 accredited journalists cover the event in more than 150 media outlets. The image of the sponsors, collaborators and allies is shown to reach an ever-growing audience, which in 2025 reached more than 24,000 admissions over the nine days of the Festival.
