Annecy 2010

Mifa is the International Animation Film Market and is the biggest event in the world reserved for the animation industry and its related sectors. It is held every year in June in Annecy (France) alongside the International Animation Film Festival. It brings together all the industry's players in animation programming for TV, movies, video, VOD, the internet and mobile phones.

Mifa is open to all professionals in animation and its related sectors, including players in animation programming for TV, movies, video, VOD, the internet and mobile phones.

"Mifa + Conferences + Festival" accreditation will be required to attend the Market. Those holding a "Festival" or "Conferences + Festival" accreditation will not be able to access the whole of the Market.

The Market will be divided between the Centre de Congrès de L'Impérial Palace and a covered marquee beside the lake. The two areas will be connected by a sheltered walkway.

The Centre de Congrès de L'Impérial Palace will host the New Technologies and Training Institute areas as well as the hospitality area and the press office. The digital video-library will be available in rooms on the 3rd and 4th floors. Several events, both public and private, will also be taking place in the Centre de Congrès.

The marquee meanwhile will house the Institutional and MEDIA 2007-2013 areas, the Stands and pavilions, as well as the Chill Out area.

The Creative Focus will also be held at the Centre de Congrès de L'Impérial Palace.

Mifa 2010 will take place at Centre de Congrès de L'Impérial Palace in Annecy (France) from Wednesday 9th to Friday 11th June inclusive. The digital video-library will be accessible from 8th June.
