European Film Festival Abu Dhabi 2025

- The Cultural Foundation, in partnership with the EU delegation in Abu Dhabi, proudly presents the EU Film Festival of Abu Dhabi, an annual showcase of European cinema that brings diverse films from across Europe to UAE audiences.   

Featuring a variety of genres, the film festival promotes cultural exchange and explores universal themes such as identity, resilience, and social change. Set in Abu Dhabi’s cultural hub, the festival includes screenings, panel discussions, and Q&A sessions with filmmakers.  

In 2025, the EU Film Festival will expand its program to support and spotlight local filmmakers, encouraging collaboration and fostering new creative opportunities between Europe and the UAE.
