This is great for the Zambian Film, Television and Screen Based Media Industry!

Zambia goes to Cannes.

For the first time, the Ministry of Youth, Sport and Arts will be on the global stage at the Cannes Film Festival and the Marché du Film - not just to attend, but to position Zambia as a destination for film, television, and creative investment.

This is a strategic move.

We are bringing a strong delegation of government and private sector leaders to engage studios, investors, distributors, and co-producers - opening conversations around infrastructure development, co-investment, and global partnerships.

From the power of Victoria Falls to vast, untapped cinematic landscapes, Zambia is ready for production.

We will also be collaborating with the Marché du Film platform, expanding visibility and unlocking new opportunities.

Cannes is the introduction.
Zambia is the opportunity.

Let’s connect. Let’s build. Let’s shoot in Zambia.
