The London TV Screenings is expanding again. As MIP gets set to move to the English capital for the first time, the annual showcase will now take place across five days instead of four and feature more than 30 distributors, it revealed this morning. The London TV Screenings will run from February 23 to February 28, kicking off with a Studiocanal event on Sunday evening at the Ham Yard Hotel.
The week will close on Friday afternoon with events held by the four founding distributors, All3Media International, Banijay Entertainment, Fremantle and ITV Studios throughout. All events will span locations across Leicester Square, Soho and Covent Garden.

The move comes with MIP TV leaving Cannes and moving to London, news revealed by Deadline earlier this year. MIP London will take place concurrent with the London Screenings from February 24-27, featuring smaller buyers and sales houses who will be able to rent out areas, suites and join networking hubs in London’s Savoy Hotel.
