Curtas Vila do Conde International Film Festival operates annually in Vila do Conde, Portugal, bringing together filmmakers, actors, and industry professionals from across Europe. The festival program spans competitive screenings, industry workshops, and networking events focused on contemporary cinema. Festival activities take place across multiple venues in the historic coastal town, including the Teatro Municipal and Municipal Auditorium. The festival's Rebag It initiative provides reusable bags to attendees while eliminating single-use plastics throughout festival operations. Environmental programs include paperless ticketing, waste sorting stations, and partnerships with local recycling facilities. The festival tracks and reports its carbon footprint through third-party verification. A 2026 design competition with Porto's Escola Superior de Artes e Design will transform retired festival materials into new merchandise collections. Student designers will repurpose flags and banners from past festivals into limited-edition products. The upcycling project builds on existing collaborations between Curtas Vila do Conde and Portuguese arts institutions.
