Tribeca Enterprises, SIC, the Portuguese broadcast company, its streaming service OPTO and the City of Lisbon have unveiled the first-ever European-edition of the Tribeca Festival, which will take place in Lisbon, Portugal from Oct. 17-19.

The festival will kick off with an opening night celebration followed by a two-day event on Lisbon’s waterfront. Patty Jenkins, Whoopi Goldberg and Griffin Dunne have already signed on as headline speakers.

“At its core, Tribeca is about uplifting a community of artists – whether that community is below 14th Street in Manhattan or across the Atlantic Ocean in Lisbon,” said Robert De Niro, co-founder of Tribeca Enterprises.

“We believe a city thrives when its artists thrive,” added Jane Rosenthal, co-founder and CEO of Tribeca Enterprises. “We’re honored to partner with Impresa this fall to champion the young generation of filmmakers, artists and creators coming out of Portugal today.”

Programming is led by Tribeca’s SVP of programming and festival director Cara Cusumano and executive producer Tony Gonçalves, a former WarnerMedia executive and a Portuguese native. The program for the European edition includes a curated collection of both Portuguese and international films, live talks with Portuguese and international talent, immersive installations, networking opportunities and more.

“Tribeca is a festival that aligns perfectly with Lisbon’s cultural ethos and policy, where we engage with our people in their neighborhoods, on the streets of Lisbon,” said Carlos Moedas, the mayor of Lisbon. “Culture is rooted in a city’s people and events like this put it on display and bring our community together. That is the spirit of Tribeca.”
