BUFF - the leading film festival for diversity in the world - has found a new home for its annual showpiece after we agreed to sponsor the seven-day event for 2017.
Under the terms of the deal, from September this year we’ll host every event of the film festival (including the BUFF Awards) at the iconic BT Tower in London, a venue which isn’t usually open to the public.
We’ll also share the awards ceremony on BT.com and will also have the opportunity to screen films acquired from BUFF on the BT TV store platform.
Tony Singh, Business Affairs and Business Development Director, BT TV said: “We are delighted to be working with the British Urban Film Festival. It is leading the way in celebrating diversity in film, and as the UK’s fastest growing TV platform, this is a great festival we are proud to support. Our famous BT Tower, which has long been a part of TV broadcasting in the UK, will be the home of BUFF, and will allow film fans to enjoy the movies and experience the unique views across London.”
