The Barcelona International Documentary Film Festival – DocsBarcelona – brings to the city each year the finest international documentary premieres, the presence of renowned filmmakers from around the world, and serves as a key meeting point and reference for the non-fiction sector in Southern Europe.

For nearly three decades, DocsBarcelona has followed an editorial line committed to a bold, thought-provoking programme that is deeply connected to the major challenges, debates, and social transformations of our time.

Each year, DocsBarcelona also unfolds DocsBarcelona Pro: A gathering space for professionals that has become one of the leading radar in Southern Europe for emerging documentary cinema. It features a wide range of initiatives focused on project development, the pursuit of financing, and the analysis and discussion of the future challenges facing the sector.

DocsBarcelona will celebrate its 30th edition from 29 April to 9 May 2027, marking three decades of commitment to documentary cinema in the city of Barcelona and consolidating its position as an international meeting point for creation, reflection and exchange among industry professionals and audiences from around the world.
