New York, NY - April 21, 2026 - Celebrating its 25th anniversary, the Tribeca Festival, presented by OKX, today unveiled its 2026 television and podcast lineup, featuring a dynamic mix of world premieres, live tapings, and exclusive conversations, taking place June 3-14 in New York City. Passes and ticket packages are on sale now at TribecaFilm.com, with the Hudson Pass offering the premier festival experience, including VIP access and an invitation to Opening or Closing Night.

At Tribeca, we've always believed in showcasing great storytelling no matter where we find it, said Tribeca Festival Director and SVP of Programming Cara Cusumano. This year's TV and podcast lineup reflects a creative landscape where stories move fluidly across formats and expands the Festival beyond the screen into shared, live moments of discovery. Together, they embody Tribeca's commitment to interdisciplinary storytelling and to championing the voices shaping culture today, wherever and however those stories are told.

This year's television lineup spans buzzworthy new series, compelling documentaries, and standout comedies, anchored by live conversations with the creators and casts behind them. Marking a major milestone in television history, Survivor celebrates its 50th season with a special panel featuring fan-favorite players Cirie Fields, Rob Cesternino, Kyle Fraser, Kamilla Karthigesu, Teeny Chirichillo, and Tribeca's own programmer and three-time Survivor player Jonathan Penner, reflecting on the show's lasting impact on global pop culture.

This year's TV lineup blends dynamic documentary storytelling with contemporary dramas and provocative comedy, capturing the cultural pulse across generations and genres, said Tribeca Festival Senior Programmer Liza Domnitz. From the intimacy of personal rediscovery to the shifting landscapes of art, sports, and sex, all our TV selections come anchored in brilliant post-screening conversations with creative teams, subjects, or cast.

Music icon Alejandro Sanz offers an intimate portrait of reinvention and resilience in Alejandro Sanz: When No One Sees Me, with a live conversation with the four-time GRAMMY Award winner, moderated by Entertainment Weekly's Editor-in-Chief and General Manager Patrick Gomez. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ronan Farrow presents a gripping HBO double feature-the world premieres of Not A Very Good Murderer and The Palladino Files-created with Emmy Award-winning filmmakers Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato of World of Wonder.

Additional highlights include the world premieres of FX's Adults season two, a sharp, heartfelt look at modern friendships in New York City, followed by a conversation with cast members Malik Elassal, Lucy Freyer, Jack Innanen, Amita Rao, and Owen Thiele; and Netflix's final season of Survival of the Thickest with Michelle Buteau. Additional selections include Hulu's Alice and Steve, starring Jemaine Clement and Nicola Walker, Every Year After, with Elisha Cuthbert, and the BBC's Dear England, starring Joseph Fiennes.

Honoring Tribeca's founding mission to unite communities through the power of storytelling in the wake of September 11, this year's television slate includes the world premiere of Nat Geo's 9/11: Reunited, a moving portrait of the life-altering bonds formed in the aftermath of one of history's darkest days. Additional documentary series include Grandmasters, examining the modernization of global chess through the eyes of traditional chess masters Magnus Carlsen, Wesley So, and Hans Niemann; and HBO's The Man Will Burn, a revealing look inside the evolution of Burning Man from Academy Award nominated Jehane Noujaim and Vikram Gandhi.

Tribeca's Indie TV showcases continue to spotlight emerging talent. The narrative showcase features CVNT, a fearless portrait of single motherhood; Switch, starring Pauline Chalamet and Coral Pe a; and Kevin's Series of Unfortunate Events, a sharp romantic comedy. The documentary showcase includes Free Help from Tribeca alum Bianca Giaever (TF 15) and The Little Cult That Could, a darkly comedic look at a Michigan doomsday group.

Today, Tribeca also announced its largest and most ambitious podcast lineup to date, transforming the Festival into a live stage for the medium's most influential voices. As the first major festival to establish an Official Podcast Selection in 2021, Tribeca continues to lead the space with a historic expansion into Spanish-language programming for the first time this year, including Nacional II: la ruta del exilio from La Rep blica Independiente de La Radio and El Capit n y el Brazalete de Esmeraldas from Peripecia y La No Ficci n. Central to this evolution is the debut of the Showcase List, a new curated section recognizing exceptional independent podcasts released since last year's Festival, including Spanish-language work.

This year marks our most expansive program yet, deepening our focus on independent podcas
