Conero Natural Park, Italy

4-7 September, 2025

Conero Film + ADV (CFA) is both a festival and a creative retreat dedicated to professionals from the advertising and film industries.

Every year, on the first weekend of September, we welcome agencies, production companies, brands, and directors to the heart of the Conero Natural Park in Italy.

With a commitment to fostering sustainable practices, CFA provides a space for thoughtful conversations, hands-on workshops, inspiring presentations, and curated film screenings—all set in a relaxed and scenic environment.

From September 4–7, guests of our Creative Retreat can immerse themselves in meaningful conversations and networking opportunities within a relaxed and inspiring setting.

On September 7, the Festival, organized by the non-profit Local Bizzarro and MontanariPR, will feature engaging talks and panels led by renowned professionals from the advertising and film industries. Attendees will also enjoy Q&A sessions with directors, screenings of the Official Selection, and the Conero Film + ADV Awards.
