The world's most prestigious competition for tourism advertising, promotional, and social media videos is open for entries. The CIFFT Circuit brings international tourism and corporate film festivals together in an outstanding competition to reward excellence in tourism communication and is inviting creative minds from across the globe to showcase their best works.
With several award opportunities, the CIFFT Circuit annually attracts audiovisual productions from major tourism brands, creative agencies, and production companies worldwide. The 2023 edition of the CIFFT Circuit featured an impressive lineup of over 3000 videos from 50 countries.
Although the CIFFT Circuit 2024 has already started, there is still time to submit entries and secure a spot in seven renowned festivals, including the US International Awards (USA), Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards (France), Terres Travel Festival (Spain), Zagreb TourFilm Festival (Croatia), ART&TUR International Tourism Film Festival (Portugal), Silafest - Silver Lake Tourfilm Festival (Serbia), and Amorgos Tourism Film Festival (Greece).
At each stage of the Circuit, the videos are evaluated and awarded by an international panel of jurors who gather renowned experts from the Tourism, Marketing, and Audiovisual Industries, including former Oscar and Emmy winners.
The awards obtained in the competition’s stages grant access to the CIFFT Rankings, allowing entrants to measure the impact of their work and reach a privileged position alongside the best in the industry. At the end of the year, the top 5 of each thematic category of the rankings will be awarded as the World’s Best Tourism Films, at the “Festival of Festivals”, the World Tourism Film Awards, in Valencia, Spain.
Entrants who submit their films through the CIFFT Entry Service will also have access to two additional awards: the CIFFT “People’s Choice” Award, an online voting competition where the global audience will choose the winner, and the CIFFT Tourism Press Award, defined by international travel journalists. The winners will also be awarded at the World Tourism Film Awards.
