ATX Television Festival Goes Virtual Again, Extends to 10 Days!
The ATX Television Festival will once again be virtual this year, but it’s offering even more content than before.
The festival announced today that it would expand its dates from Friday, June 11 to Sunday, June 20 to celebrate its tenth year (Season 10).
The event promises to be a “unique and immersive ‘at home’ experience, where ATX TV ticketed audiences will tune-in across ten days for a variety of screenings, panels, roundtable discussions, interstitial content, VOD programming, special events, and more.
The virtual festival will focus on being community-driven and offering interactive events for attendees to engage with each other at specific times.
The second weekend of the event (June 18-20) will be filmed from iconic locations in the heart of Austin to give viewers a heightened sense of engagement and place.
ATX Television Festival also says they are continuing to work closely with the partners and talent of previously postponed programming to determine the best fit for each reunion, series, and panel, whether those will be part of the virtual event or an in-person event at a later date.
Last year’s event was also virtual, with programming that included TV trivia, surprise chats, and panels on The Bold Type, Psych, Perry Mason, New Amsterdam, and more.
ATX TV is also launching its first-ever Virtual Membership Program allowing exclusive access to events and programming happening all year long. Find more information at atxfestival.com.
The festival will announce its first round of Season 10 programming in April.
About the ATX Television Festival:
ATX Television Festival is an annual event produced by ATX TV, taking place every June in Austin, TX. As the leading television festival, it brings together fans and industry to celebrate the television medium by looking at its history, where it is now, and where it is headed. The festival consists of screenings followed by Q&As, panels, and events (parties, live music, meet-ups, super-secret happy hours, etc) and is known for reunions of both classic shows and cult hits. Screenings showcase never-aired pilots, cancelled too soon series, and current favorites, as well as world premieres of new series. Panels span from industry deep dives, to fan-focused conversations, along with discussions on representation (in front of and behind the camera) and responsibility in storytelling. The ATX TV audience is comprised equally of consumers and industry professionals, and ATX Television Festival is the only place they come together as one community to discuss and celebrate all aspects of #TVTogether.
