The Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC) has set up a “Macao Pavilion” at the ongoing Hong Kong International Film and TV Market (FILMART) 2025 in the neighbouring region.
Held until tomorrow at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, the setting-up of the pavilion is aimed at promoting Macau’s film and television services, hoping to encourage more projects to be shot here and create more opportunities for the local industry’s development, according to a recent statement by the bureau.
Local entities organised by the bureau to participate in the four-day event, which kicked off on Monday, include local government entities, as well as film and TV production companies. They consist of the Cultural Development Fund, Free Dream Films Production Company Limited, Macao Wing Chon Film Ltd., Cirrus Productions Limited, Type F Studio and E.C. Film Production Company Limited.
The statement added that during the period, an introduction session about the “Subsidy Programme for Cinematographic and Television Filming in Macao” will also be held to “encourage more film and television projects to be shot in Macau and foster the development of the local film and television industry”.
FILMART was described by the statement as being “the largest cross-media and cross-sectoral trade fair for film and entertainment in Asia”. The event’s official website notes that last year’s edition had over 760 exhibitors from 27 countries and regions.
