The Thessaloniki Documentary Festival is one of the first, after the festivals of Tribeca and Austin, to explore the thrilling world of podcasts.

Workshops and masterclass: In March, the Festival will host a series of online workshops for people that want to work professionally with podcasts. The workshops will offer tools and expertise on the genres and structure of podcasts. Meanwhile, an online masterclass will reveal the secrets of podcasts and will be open to the public.
Festival podcasts: The Festival will create unexpected podcasts, related to themes, people, moments from the 23rd TDF. We will have the chance to enjoy them in the summer, from June 24 to July 4.
Open call: After the completion of the workshops in March, the Festival will make an open call to creators from Greece and abroad to submit their podcasts, based on specifications that will be announced then. The best podcasts will be selected and presented during the summer through the Festival’s digital channels.
Podcast for children: The world of podcasts will be explored by children, who will be invited to create their own recording.
