About this event
The Serial Killer Festival will take place from September 23 to 28, 2026, in Brno, bringing European series premieres to the Czech Republic's second-largest city. As the first festival in Central and Eastern Europe dedicated exclusively to TV series and streaming productions, the event has established itself as an important meeting point for the industry.
The festival uses the Goose on a String Theatre (Divadlo Husa na provázku) as its main venue, while also screening premieres at additional locations throughout the city. The six-day event caters to both industry professionals from the film and series sector and to series fans who want to experience European productions on the big screen.
The Serial Killer Festival primarily presents European series productions and offers insights into the latest developments in the TV and streaming landscape. Since its founding, the event has positioned itself as a platform for exchange between producers, directors, writers, and audiences. In addition to screenings, the program typically includes panel discussions and industry networking opportunities.
Brno, the capital of the South Moravian Region, is known for its vibrant cultural scene and has several cinemas and theaters that host festival events. The Goose on a String Theatre itself is a historic experimental theater that has existed since the 1960s and is renowned for innovative productions.
Tickets for the festival are available from €4, with prices reaching up to €19 depending on the event. Tickets can be purchased online through the official festival website. The complete program schedule with all participating series and premieres will be announced in the months leading up to the festival.
Brno is approximately one and a half hours by train from Vienna and has excellent transport connections from across Europe. The city offers a wide range of accommodation options for festival visitors, from budget hostels to hotels in various categories.
