ATHENS TO HOST INTERNATIONAL EMMY AWARD SEMI-FINALS IN SEPTEMBER
Greek and international judges will meet in Athens for two Emmy Award semi-final events in September, the Municipality of Athens announced this week.
Film industry development is a strategic goal for the City of Athens!
The municipality’s Athens Film Office and Nova, a United Group member, will appoint a jury that will select the final candidates in two categories.
Every summer from June 15 – September 15, the Academy travels to over 25 judging sites for semi-final judging rounds which determine the International Emmy Award nominees for the year. The Academy-approved jurors are television, film, production and creatives professionals.
The Athens event will offer hosts and jurors the chance to network, visit local landmarks and attend a special gala event. The Athens Emmy Award semi-final events are one more step towards establishing the capital in the global film and creatives industry while acknowledging Athens’ growing dynamic as an events host city, the municipality said.
The 2023 International Emmy Awards will take place on November 20 in New York City.
