Greece is selected as the Country of Honor for the 2027 edition of Cannes Film Festival’s Marché du Film, the industry market held alongside the festival. Multiple outlets report that the market will run from May 11 to May 19, 2027, during the 80th Cannes Film Festival. The Marché du Film’s Country of Honor program will be themed under the banner “Ride the Greek Wave.” The market states that the selection recognizes Greece’s “remarkable rise” as one of Europe’s leading audiovisual hubs and highlights the country’s growing influence in the sector. The announcements describe the honor as a formal distinction within the Marché du Film, intended to put a spotlight on Greek production and industry activity during the festival week. Details on specific programming and activities connected to the honor were not included in the provided summaries, but the selection itself is the central point reported by both outlets. The designation positions Greece as the focal country for the market’s 2027 industry outreach and promotional efforts.
