International Emmy® Awards Semi-Final Round of Judging

IMZ Members and TV professionals gathered last month in Vienna to evaluate the Semi-Final Round of the International Emmy® Awards in the “Arts Programming” category.

The jury faced the tough task of selecting the very best in international arts content, with submissions spanning a wide range of genres and styles.

Beyond the screenings and jury deliberations, there was also time for a networking reception filled with inspiring conversations and a memorable behind-the-scenes look at the iconic Theater an der Wien.

A heartfelt thank you to our extraordinary jurors, our trusted partner ORF-Enterprise, Theater an der Wien, and the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (International Emmy® Awards) for their support and confidence.

The winners will be honoured at the 53rd International Emmy® Awards Gala, taking place on Monday, 24 November 2025, in New York City.
