MIP Cancun is set to return to pre-pandemic levels in its 2022 edition

RX France confirmed a return to pre-pandemic levels for the ninth edition of MIP Cancun, the international content market for Latin America and US Hispanic television, scheduled for November 13-16 of this year at the Moon Palace Hotel in Cancun, Mexico. Two weeks from opening, MIP Cancun is set to welcome over 800 delegates from over 40 countries. This contrasts with 450 delegates who convened in 2021 amidst widespread travel restrictions.

Sold out are MIP Cancun's signature one-to-one matchmaking business accelerators, which match distributors with buyers and producers with commissioners for three days of pre-scheduled meetings.

Delegate passes are still available providing full access to the market’s comprehensive three-and-a-half-day conference and events program. Registration includes more than 30 sessions with keynotes, multiple content showcases and screenings, a large networking lounge, exhibit hall featuring services providers, as well as a pre-opening party sponsored by Sony Pictures Television, opening night party, and closing party.

Fresh from staging its presentation of the second series of hit thriller “The Head” at Mipcom Cannes, The Mediapro Studio, a key player in content creation, production and distribution across all genres for television and film, will present MIP Cancun’s opening night party.

“In just under a decade MIP Cancun has become established as the must attend meet point for everyone worldwide doing business with the Latin America and US Hispanic television industry. The take up has never been more rapid or the programme more diverse - a testament to the region’s continued exceptional creativity and explosive growth - a momentum we are committed to contribute to, and evolve the market in line with, over the next decade,”  said Lucy Smith, Director Entertainment Division at RX France.

Maria Perez-Bellière, Director of MIP Cancun, added: “The MIP Cancun community will again be out in force on the stage and all its surroundings. Though capacity is reached on the matchmaking so synonymous with the market, our delegate numbers continue to grow to access the wider conference and networking market. It promises to be a very special return to full strength.”
