Annual edition · spring · La Palma
For collaborating production houses, attending distributors, regional Canary press, sponsor delegations, jury members and brand teams that need film-themed apparel, press dossiers, numbered jury keepsakes and named VIP packs ready for the spring edition in Santa Cruz de La Palma, Canary Islands — an Atlantic island with UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status, the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory and a consolidated festival on the Macaronesian cinema circuit. EUR + 21% VAT invoiced through FACe and the Suministro Inmediato de Información (SII) of the Agencia Tributaria (AEAT), with combined island delivery via sea link from Cádiz or air connection from Madrid to a named hotel, the Teatro Circo de Marte, the Cabildo Insular de La Palma or the venues of the historic quarter of the island capital.
The La Palma Film Festival has run for several years in the Canarian spring window and has consolidated itself as one of the cinephile fixtures of the Macaronesian circuit. The edition is split between the Teatro Circo de Marte — one of the best-preserved nineteenth-century theatres in the archipelago —, the Cabildo Insular de La Palma, several alternative screens in the historic quarter of Santa Cruz and the port spaces, where open-air screenings and industry talks are programmed. The editorial line combines contemporary Spanish cinema, natural-heritage and Biosphere Reserve documentaries, short films from new Canarian directors and retrospectives curated in collaboration with the Filmoteca Canaria and the Filmoteca Española.
For collaborating production houses, attending distributors, regional Canary press, sponsor delegations and jury members the operational challenge is to plan an island film week held in an Atlantic island with mild spring weather: apparel has to handle coastal light, auditorium air-conditioning and the moves between Santa Cruz and the northern municipalities; giveaways have to read as cultural collectibles and not as generic souvenir shop merchandise; the press dossier has to be substantial enough for Macaronesian critics across multiple sessions; and the VIP pack has to honour the jury and the institutional sponsors without overstating the supplier's own relationship with the festival. The production chain usually combines a peninsular hub in Madrid with a cross-dock in Cádiz and a sea or air link to the Puerto de La Palma, from which the load is delivered to the delegation's hotel or the Teatro Circo de Marte.
The client profiles we serve for the La Palma festival include collaborating production houses bringing their own merch to the Canaries, independent distributors presenting their catalogue at industry sessions, critics and specialist press who need multilingual dossiers, regional houses and island sponsors delivering protocol material for the edition they sponsor, and cultural production offices moving technical kit between Madrid, Las Palmas and Santa Cruz de La Palma during the cycle.
The mix we recommend for an island film week combines discreet film-themed apparel, press kits for Macaronesian critics, numbered jury packs and gift activations for the audience and sponsors. Each line is locked in with deadlines and reserved stock at the peninsular hub so we can react to last-minute increases before the sea or air link to La Palma.
Polos and lightweight layers in muted Atlantic tones with fine screen-print of the sponsor's monogram, light blazers for the Teatro Circo de Marte evening team, foldable raincoats for the late-afternoon open-air programme at the Plaza de España and bib-branded lanyards for the accredited welcome crew at the Cabildo Insular and the Puerto de La Palma.
Hardbound A5 notebooks with the festival wrap, fine-tip pens engraved with the festival mark, multilingual press dossiers (ES/EN/PT for Iberian and Macaronesian critics), screen-printed heavy-cotton tote bags, brushed-metal USB sticks with the curated programme and a small film-cell bookmark ribbon for the printed catalogue.
Premium notebooks wrapped in Canarian craft paper, fine-tip pen sets, screen-printed programme folios with bilingual ES/EN synopsis, leather or canvas portfolios numbered for the jury deliberation and a small set of Canarian artisan keepsakes (La Palma wine miniatures, plátano de Canarias banana, palm honey, Canarian aguardiente) for international jurors.
Reusable steel bottles screen-printed with the festival motif, foldable shopping totes for the audience giveaways, festival-branded enamel pins for the Atlantic cultural-tourism circuit, screen-printed A4 folders for sponsor activations and small film-themed desk items for the island sponsors and the Cabildo Insular de La Palma.
The branded merchandise operation for the La Palma Film Festival is usually coordinated between Madrid, Cádiz and the Canary Islands: the Madrid peninsular production hub handles the entire order and dispatches by road to the Cádiz cross-dock, where it is consolidated with the sea or air link to the Puerto de La Palma; the named consignee receives the merchandise — the sponsor's office in Santa Cruz, Madrid or Las Palmas, the reference hotel inside the historic island quarter, the Teatro Circo de Marte itself, the Cabildo Insular or the Puerto de La Palma. The combined island delivery window is 5–7 calendar days with prior appointment, given that the spring Canarian cycle coincides with horticultural export traffic and weekly sailing frequency.
We keep reserved stock at the Madrid peninsular hub for recurring pieces — white shirts, A5 notebooks and tote bags with generic screen-print — that we can produce and deliver to the Cádiz cross-dock in 7–10 working days. For pieces with custom embroidery (sponsor's monogram, limited-edition numbering, jury keepsake monogram) the window moves to 12–14 working days before the island link. For sponsors with special hospitality pieces (numbered gift boxes, sets with La Palma wine or palm honey) we recommend closing the order 5–6 weeks before the opening screening to absorb the island transit.
The B2B invoice is issued in EUR with 21% VAT added through FACe and the Suministro Inmediato de Información (SII) of the Agencia Tributaria (AEAT); for intra-EU clients with a valid VIES NIF reverse-charge applies without Spanish VAT; for UK and non-EU clients the invoice is issued without VAT citing the corresponding EU directive article. The Canaries have their own indirect-tax regime (IGIC) for local deliveries within the archipelago, which applies only to B2B transactions between Canarian operators. Every island delivery is confirmed with a signed delivery note at destination and, when the client requests it, with a photo of the material unloaded at the Teatro Circo de Marte, the Cabildo Insular or the sponsor's office.
The festival traditionally runs in spring, with screenings at the Teatro Circo de Marte in Santa Cruz de La Palma, the Cabildo Insular, the Plaza de España and parallel talks at the cultural venues of the historic island quarter. The exact dates of each edition are confirmed in the cultural agenda of the Cabildo Insular de La Palma, the Gobierno de Canarias and the Filmoteca Canaria.
We combine a Madrid peninsular hub, the Cádiz cross-dock and a sea or air link to the Puerto de La Palma. The combined island window is 5–7 calendar days with prior appointment; we consolidate to a single island destination and the client's internal team distributes to the hotel, the Teatro Circo de Marte, the Cabildo Insular or the sponsor's office.
