About us
In the Name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
The Sobh International Media Festival was inaugurated in 2023 with the objective of facilitating connections between a heterogeneous group of international program producers and fostering constructive interactions among them. This initiative is designed to influence the trajectory of global media trends.
The festival aims to acknowledge and celebrate the contributions of gifted individuals engaged in media pursuits, facilitating avenues for them to advance their artistic endeavors and innovation. The objective is to establish a robust and influential international media presence. Through our educational initiatives, including workshops and seminars, our objective is to provide artists with exposure to a variety of media, thereby broadening their perspectives and encouraging.
