NewImages Festival 2027

Where immersive art begins...

NewImages Festival returns to Paris from 21 to 25 April 2027 for a new edition dedicated to immersive art, digital creation and the future of storytelling.

The Industry Days will take place from 20 to 23 April 2027, bringing together artists, producers, curators, cultural venues, institutions and decision-makers from across the international immersive ecosystem.

More than a festival, NewImages is a meeting point: a place where works are experienced, projects are developed, ideas circulate and new collaborations begin.
