LatAm Content Market
NATPE Budapest 2026 is an international audiovisual content market focused on the television and streaming industry, where producers, distributors, buyers, and executives meet to negotiate deals, co-productions, and content acquisitions. It is not a festival or a competitive project call, but a B2B industry event centered on content distribution and business development.
The 2026 edition will take place from April 27 to April 29, 2026, in Budapest, Hungary. This date shift reflects a broader restructuring of the global media market calendar, aiming to avoid oversaturation in June and take advantage of the gap left by other international markets.
The event is fully international, bringing together participants from Europe, Latin America, the United States, and other regions. There is no formal submission process for projects; instead, participation is based on registration and accreditation for buyers, sellers, exhibitors, and press representatives.
NATPE Budapest does not select content by genre or format, as its focus is commercial rather than curatorial. However, it covers a wide range of audiovisual content, including fiction, non-fiction, documentaries, entertainment formats, TV and streaming series, feature films for broadcast, and digital content such as FAST channels.
