Vulture Festival Returning to New York for the 25th Tribeca Festival

Vulture Festival will return to New York City as part of the 25th Tribeca Festival, now under a new cultural hub titled Vulture Festival at Tribeca Festival. From Tribeca Enterprises and New York Magazine’s Vulture, it will serve as a destination for marquee conversations, reunions, screenings, and live experiences in entertainment.

The collaboration marks Vulture Festival’s return to New York for the first time since 2019, bringing the pop-culture event back to its roots in downtown Manhattan, coinciding with the 25th anniversary of Tribeca Festival. 

Vulture Festival at Tribeca Festival will debut at the 2026 Tribeca Festival, which runs June 3–14, 2026, across New York City. Attendees can access events with Tribeca Festival passes or individual tickets here. Additional details about Vulture Festival at Tribeca Festival will be announced this spring and full Tribeca programming details are forthcoming.

The 25th Tribeca Festival will celebrate the Festival’s legacy as a champion of independent voices and its ongoing role in shaping the future of storytelling across film, television, music, podcasts, games, immersive experiences, and more. Since its founding, Tribeca has served as a launchpad for filmmakers and artists, premiering early works from creators who would go on to redefine modern storytelling.

This year, the Festival honors its alumni community, including Damien Chazelle (Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench, TF ‘09), Jon M. Chu (When the Kids Are Away, TF ‘02; In The Heights, TF ‘21), Ryan Coogler (Locks, TF ‘09), Nia DaCosta (Little Woods, TF ‘18), the Daniels (Possibilia, TF ‘14), David Gelb (King of Central Park, TF ‘06; Chef’s Table, TF ‘15), Alex Gibney (Taxi to the Dark Side, TF ‘07), Domee Shi (Bao, TF ‘18), and many more.
