The London TV Screenings announced that 36 distributors will take part in its expanded 2025 schedule from February 23 to 28, 2025. The number of contributing distributors is already significantly up on London TV Screenings 2024 and follows recent news that next year’s edition of the UK’s premier annual distribution event will be extended by an extra day.

The four founding distributors All3Media International, Banijay Entertainment, Fremantle and ITV Studios, will all hold events in London throughout the week, and in 2025 will be joined by Amazon MGM Studios Distribution, Autentic GmbH, Mediawan Rights, PBS International and TGC Global Entertainment, who will all participate in the London TV Screenings for the first time.

These new additions join a line-up comprising: About Premium Content, Beta Film, Blue Ant Media, BossaNova Media, Cineflix Rights, DCD Rights, Disney, Dogwoof, Eccho Rights, Federation Studios, Fifth Season, Fox Entertainment Global, Hat Trick International, Keshet International, Lionsgate, NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution, Newen Connect, Off the Fence, Paramount Global Content Distribution, Passion Distribution, Seven.One Studios International, Sony Pictures Television, Sphere Abacus, STUDIOCANAL, TVF International, Viaplay Content Distribution and Warner Bros. International Television Production.

A London TV Screenings spokesperson said: “The London TV Screenings 2025 is already set to be the largest edition in its five-year history, and we continue to welcome new participants to its ever-growing roster. A ‘must-attend’ in the TV industry calendar, it’s testament to Screenings’ success that even more distributors are now working collaboratively to ensure global buyers get the best access to new premium content at this free-to-attend event.”

The fifth annual Screenings will again see the group of leading distributors work together to offer expertly-curated sessions, exclusive first-looks and “deep dives” into some of the most hotly-anticipated formats, scripted and non-scripted content - as well as the chance to connect with world-class on and off-screen talent.

The 2024 Screenings enjoyed a 50% uplift in buyer attendance, some 750+ in total, as well as attracting 29 participating distributors/studios, an increase on the previous year. As previously announced, the 2025 edition will be kick started by European producer and distributor STUDIOCANAL, with an early Sunday evening showcase at the Ham Yard Hotel.

Among the founders, who curate this collaborative event, Banijay Entertainment will be at BAFTA 195 Piccadilly on February 26 with scripted and non-scripted in the morning followed by formats in the afternoon. The subsequent three distributor events will run at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square - ITV Studios Festivals throughout the day on February 26 (Formats, Non-Scripted, Drama Festivals), All3Media International on February 27, and Fremantle (Scripted, Non-Scripted and Formats) on February 28. Other distributor events running through the week will be announced independently.
