Deauville American Film Festival 2026

Overview

The 52nd Deauville American Film Festival, scheduled for September 4 to 13, 2026, in Normandy, France, features a competition of 13 films with a focus on new talent. The festival includes a Grand Prix jury presided over by Roschdy Zem and a Revelation jury led by Lio. Notable participants include Kristen Stewart, Scarlett Johansson, and Julie Pacino, while tributes will be paid to Faye Dunaway, Ethan Fraser, and Brendan Fraser.

As the festival approaches, it has triggered a significant surge in tourism interest across the Côte Fleurie region. Accommodation searches have risen sharply compared to 2025, with notable increases in Deauville, Honfleur, and Trouville-sur-Mer. International interest is growing, particularly from Germany, Belgium, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, with a massive 617.6% year-on-year spike in searches from Poland. The event will also honor Ethan Hawke, Brendan Sarandon, Faye Dunaway, and Susan Sarandon by adding their names to the local beach cabins.
