Inaugural festival opened with five-time Academy Award-winning film Anora
Building upon the success of its first year, Tribeca Festival Lisboa expands to three full days of programming
NEW YORK, NY AND LISBON, PORTUGAL - (March 11, 2025) - Tribeca Enterprises, SIC, the Portuguese broadcast company, and the Lisbon City Council today announced the return of the international extension, Tribeca Festival Lisboa, set to take place October 30-November 1, 2025, at Unicorn Factory Lisboa in the Beato Innovation District of Lisbon, Portugal.
Following the success of the inaugural edition, Tribeca Festival Lisboa expands to three full days of programming, featuring a mix of U.S. independent films, Portuguese films, series, podcasts, and music showcases, as well as live talks with international and local stars.
Last year, the city of Lisbon welcomed Tribeca with open arms and we found a home away from home-a creative haven buzzing with inspiration and innovation. This year, we're thrilled to return for the second annual Tribeca Festival Lisboa, said Jane Rosenthal, co-founder and CEO of Tribeca Enterprises. Tribeca believes that cities flourish when their artistic communities are supported, which is why this partnership means so much to us, and we're honored to continue to share our global platform with the city's incredible talent.
Francisco Pedro Balsem o, Impresa's CEO, highlighted: Year one of Tribeca Festival Lisboa was an amazing and unique experience for Portuguese audiences. We are thrilled to host this event once again, where we will increase talent, quality content and unforgettable talks. We thank Bob, Jane and the Tribeca team for their unwavering partnership and are eager to write this new and exciting chapter together with them.
The inaugural Tribeca Festival Lisboa opened with the Portuguese premiere of Sean Baker's Anora, which won five Oscars at the 97th Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Additional highlights from the first festival included live talks with Tribeca co-founders Robert De Niro and Jane Rosenthal, Whoopi Goldberg, Patty Jenkins, Griffin Dunne, Chazz Palminteri, Ricardo Ara jo Pereira, Daniela Ruah, Sara Sampaio, Joaquim de Almeida, and C sar Mour o.
The Tribeca Festival is back in Lisbon, reinforcing our commitment to culture and artistic innovation, added Mayor of Lisbon Carlos Moedas. Hosting this prestigious festival at the Unicorn Factory not only highlights the citys creative energy but also solidifies Lisbon as a major global cultural hub. It is an honor to welcome Tribeca once again, and we look forward to the enriching experiences it will bring to our community.
Tribeca's footprint in Lisbon signals global ambitions for the media and entertainment company, which first expanded internationally between 2009-2012 with the Doha Tribeca Film Festival, the first-ever film festival in Qatar. In recent years, Tribeca has cemented its presence beyond New York City with annual events in Lisbon, Los Angeles, and Miami.
