The artistic director of the award ceremony is Icelandic musician, producer and TV host Unnsteinn Manuel Stefánsson, the musical director is Berlin-based musician and composer Kriton Klingler-Ioannides.

The nominees and celebrity guests will enter Harpa via a unique art installation created especially for the European Film Awards. Instead of a traditional red carpet that would have had to been shipped from abroad, Icelandic artists Tanja Levý, Lilý Erla Adamsdóttir and Sean O’Brien created a sustainable Art Carpet made from local products and materials to reduce the carbon footprint. The architecture of Harpa, where the award ceremony will take place, is inspired by Icelandic nature and the structure is based on columnar basalt. Therefore, the artists decided that the art carpet should bring the unique Icelandic nature within the walls of Harpa. The inspiration for the Art Carpet is drawn from the uniqueness of the Icelandic landscape, for example lava fields covered with wooly fringe moss. This special moss makes the landscape look unearthly. The artists put emphasis on capturing the otherworldly elements from nature with variety methods, for example tufting Icelandic wool, using geotextiles and saw dust. The installation is designed to have a second life and will be used for other events as well.

The European Film Awards are presented in 26 categories. 16 winners have already been announced, the winners of the main categories will be revealed during the award show: European Film, European Comedy, European Discovery – Prix FIPRESCI, European Documentary, European Animated Feature Film, European Short Film, European Director, European Actress, European Actor and European Screenwriter. Please find the nominees here.

The ceremony of the European Film Awards – the most renowned and prestigious award for European film – is presented by the European Film Academy and European Film Academy Productions.
