The event is shaping up to be bigger than ever, with 2,000+ industry professionals expected to attend.

NEM Dubrovnik, the largest TV market in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), is gearing up for a successful new edition, with the addition of a new exhibitor space, following the complete sell-out of its traditional exhibition areas.

The event, scheduled for June 8 to 11, 2026, will introduce the Adriatic Area as a new meeting and networking space, following strong exhibitor demand that has fully booked the Sunset Area and Mare Area.

The Adriatic Area will serve as a central meeting point for buyers and decision-makers, enabling buyers to schedule meetings with leading distributors and broadcasters in a single location, further strengthening the market’s B2B focus.

Located on the 10th floor of the Hotel Dubrovnik Palace, at the same level as the Mare Area, the new space will be familiar to many attendees, as it has traditionally hosted the event’s welcome reception. The area features a climate-controlled pavilion connected to a terrace overlooking the sea, allowing for full-day use.

Most meeting tables will offer views of the Adriatic Sea, and the space is designed to host business meetings, informal gatherings, coffee breaks, and networking events, adapting to the operational needs of what is expected to be the largest edition in the market’s history.

The visual concept of the Adriatic Area is inspired by the Mediterranean environment and the Adriatic Sea, aligning with the event’s identity and location.

With this expansion, NEM Dubrovnik continues its sustained growth and further consolidates its position as a key meeting point for the audiovisual industry in the CEE region.
