Join us during Manchester International Film Festival’s industry days for a session of rapid filmmaker meetings.

Taking place on Thursday 21 March from 15:00 - 16:00 at 53Two.

With 40 spaces at the event available, our speed mixer will see attendees moving tables and meeting a new group of filmmakers every 10 minutes. You’ll be given a list of tables you’ll need to be at in every round to ensure you’ll be meeting someone new each time. If maybe you struggle to introduce yourself to people (who doesn’t) or you just hate getting stuck talking to the same person all night, this is the networking event for you.

Sign up

The event is free to attend and no Manchester Film Festival industry pass is required. As places are limited though please only sign up if you intend to come. Signing up and not taking up your place means someone else misses out. Please also be on time as the event will start promptly at 15:00.
