Networking Dinners

FEST – Networking Dinners offer a unique opportunity to connect with some of the biggest names in the film world, in a serene and welcoming setting, with the sunset and ocean as the backdrop.

Join the dinner table with filmmakers, industry experts, partners, and the FEST team for a deliciously Portuguese meal.

Dinner is served buffet-style and features outstanding dishes from Portuguese cuisine, provided by local restaurants (including vegetarian and vegan options), accompanied by a selection of wines from Portugal’s most renowned wine regions – all in an effort to showcase the richness of our country’s gastronomic offerings.

Please check the booking process for the Networking Dinners below.

 

In 2025, the Networking Dinners will take place on the industry programme days, from June 23rd to 27th.
