12th INTERNATIONAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL FILM FESTIVAL – AGON 2024

20 – 26 May 2024

Following the success of the 11th International Archaeological Film Festival – AGON 2022, here comes the next edition of AGON Festival in 2024! The Festival will take place at the Greek Film Archive, from 20 to 25 May 2024, and the Awards Ceremony will be held at the Olympia, Municipal Music Theatre “Maria Callas”, on Sunday, May 26, 2024.

The theme of the Festival is archaeology in the broadest sense of the word: Antiquity; the Middle Ages; folk arts and traditions; industrial archaeology; cultural heritage; the creation of new cultures through migration and multiracialism from antiquity to the present; the recording of a world that is inevitably lost; the present becoming the archaeology of tomorrow.

The 12th International Archaeological Film Festival – AGON 2024 is held with the financial support of the Ministry of Culture, under the auspices of the Region of Attica and the Municipality of Athens, in collaboration with the Archaeology and Arts magazine and with the support of the Acropolis Museum.

Submissions will open in late September 2023.
