The Berlinale audience

The 75th edition of the Berlin International Film Festival will run February 13-23, 2025.

It will mark the first edition of the festival under new director Tricia Tuttle who takes the helm from Carlo Chatrian and Mariette Rissenbeek next month (April 1).

The Baftas, which has clashed with the film festival almost every year since 2004, has not yet announced the date for its 2025 awards ceremony.

This year’s Berlinale sold 324,000 tickets - up from last year’s 320,000 total but still not in line with the last pre-pandemic edition in 2020 where 330,000 tickets were sold. 

Dates for the European Film Market (EFM), which runs during the festival, are yet to be confirmed.
