The 4th Global Conference on Media, Communication and Film (MCFCONF 2026) is scheduled to convene from 20 to 22 February 2026 in London, United Kingdom, offering academics, researchers, communication specialists, filmmakers, and media practitioners a platform to exchange ideas and showcase cutting-edge work in communication, media, and cinema studies.
Organised as an international scholarly event, MCFCONF brings together professionals from diverse regions and academic backgrounds to present original research, participate in discussions, and build networks that transcend national borders. Participants can engage with the latest trends and theoretical developments across a range of subject areas, including communication in the digital era, journalism, social media design, organisational communication, and film studies.
The conference accepts multiple participation formats. Delegates may present orally on site, submit poster presentations, join as virtual presenters, or attend as listeners to learn from peers without presenting their own papers. Each accepted abstract is peer-reviewed, and authors whose submissions are chosen will have opportunities to publish their work in indexed journals or conference proceedings after the event.
Important deadlines include 30 January 2026 for abstract submission and 10 February 2026 for conference registration. Fees vary by participation type, with student and regular author rates, virtual delegates, and listeners all accommodated. Registered attendees receive admission to scientific sessions, access to poster exhibitions, conference materials, refreshments, and a certificate of attendance.
The programme also features networking opportunities and a complimentary guided city tour of London’s historic sites for in-person participants, combining professional development with cultural exploration in one of Europe’s most vibrant capitals.
MCFCONF themes span core areas of media and communication research, including journalism theories and ethics, interpersonal and intercultural communication, public relations, marketing and social media, and film and cinema disciplines—reflecting the conference’s interdisciplinary scope. Delegates will engage with contemporary challenges in media practice and research, exploring how media intersects with society, technology, and culture.
The 2026 London edition builds on previous conferences held in major cities, reinforcing its role as a dynamic platform for global academic exchange in the media and communication fields.
