Series Mania announced new dates for the 2021 edition of Series Mania Festival and Series Mania Forum.
Next year’s Series Mania Festival will take place in Lille, France from May 28-June 5, 2021, while the industry portion, Series Mania Forum, will run from June 1-3. In addition, the Lille Dialogues will be held on June 1. Registration for the festival will start January 18. Launched in March 2020, Series Mania Digital will serve as an online platform to complement the live event.
Additionally, the Call for Series and Call for Projects, which were announced earlier in the year for the festival and the Forum, respectively, will have an extended deadline of March 5, 2020.
Rodolphe Belmer, president of Series Mania, commented, “We are extremely grateful to the Hauts-de-France region and the city of Lille who have worked closely with us in helping to secure these new dates for 2021. As you can imagine, this was not an easy task. With the ongoing uncertainly surrounding COVID-19, we believe these dates in the warmer months of May and June are the perfect time frame for Series Mania 2021. For our 2022 edition, we will return to our dates in March for which Series Mania has become known.”
Laurence Herszberg (pictured), founder and general director of Series Mania, added, “Our team has been working non-stop in preparing our events and I have no doubt our 2021 edition will be bigger and better than ever, sending a strong message of hope to both the audiences and the industry. I look forward to welcoming everyone to Lille, having again the pleasure of working together in person, and, true to my forever optimism, raising our glasses to celebrate better days ahead!”
