TV (linear) Market: Screenforce Festival 2026: TV's Future Moves Beyond the Stage

Zusammenfassung des Signals

A commentary by Katrin Ansorge on the Screenforce Festival 2026 (published July 5, 2026) notes that the event delivered large-scale production, big names and strong emotions while celebrating the strengths of television. The piece argues that whether the TV category ultimately wins with advertisers will be decided off-stage—in media plans and buying decisions—rather than by the festival spectacle itself. The article was published on Horizont (dfv Mediengruppe) and references wider coverage of the festival and related industry discussions.
