France’s big TV Rendez-Vous is on the move. The market is where French TV distributors show off the best of their wares to international buyers. Having been held in St. Tropez and Biarritz it is taking up residence in the port city of Le Havre in Normandy, Northern France, for its thirtieth edition.

Coming ahead of Mipcom, the market has traditionally allowed buyers a moment to screen the best of the upcoming French content in a convivial setting, with lunchtime and evening social events laid on, and, in recent years, a Gala Screening. Ca c’est Paris has the Gala slot this time, with another evening featuring a screening of the much-anticipated France Télévisions and Paramount+ action-comedy Zorro.

The annual export figures for French programming are also revealed at the event, showing how Gallic fare is being received around the world.

The TV Rendez-Vous has been run by Unifrance...
