01The Concept

Everything that moves the world,
in one Palm Beach season.

IMFPB is a curated festival where film, music, fashion, sport, technology and capital meet in Palm Beach's most distinctive settings. Built season by season, rooted in the community, and designed around one idea: media business is a lifestyle.

02The Calendar

Two Moments, One Season

A November moment that kicks off the season, and an April festival that fulfills it.
