The Global Production Awards (GPAs) celebrate outstanding achievements in film and television production around the world. They highlight excellence across the full spectrum of production — from studio and location work to creative execution and innovation in sustainable practices. Entries are now open, with the award ceremony to be held during the Cannes Film Festival.
Open to all organisations within screen production — including studios, production companies, film commissions, location services, suppliers, and manufacturers — the GPAs offer a platform to showcase exceptional talent, collaboration, and operational excellence.
Don’t miss the GPA deadline: 13 March 2026
The GPA is managed by Media Business Insight (MBI), the publishers of Screen International, Screen Global Production, The Knowledge, World of Locations & Broadcast.
If you or anyone you know are interested, check the categories and criteria and submit entries in time for this year’s awards cycle by March 13, 2026 (below).
Unlike traditional awards that focus on the finished film or series, the Global Production Awards honour the people and teams who make production possible. They recognise outstanding contributions in areas such as:
- Exceptional filming locations and production environments
- Innovation in studio facilities and services
- Excellence in crew performance and execution
- Sustainable, diverse, and community-focused production initiatives
The GPAs aims to set new benchmarks in environmental responsibility, diversity, and local economic impact. The awards celebrate the best global examples of how production can be both creative and conscientious.
The Global Production Awards ceremony will take place during the Cannes Film Market, held alongside the Cannes Film Festival — an essential event for professionals dedicated to advancing global film and television production. If you are attending the Film Market in 2026, this is definitely a date to add to your calendar.
