The Ireland edition of The Times, the digital newspaper, and The Sunday Times have been named as an official media partner of the Audi Dublin International Film Festival 2017, which will take place from 16th to 26th February.

The Audi Dublin International Film Festival, now in its 15th year, prides itself on creating a programme which showcases the very best in international film and attracts high quality producers, writers, directors and actors. In the past, the festival has welcomed stars such as Al Pacino, Julie Andrews, Danny DeVito, Richard Gere and Russell Crowe to Dublin. This year’s line-up includes guest appearances from Vanessa Redgrave, Cillian Murphy, Jack Reynor, Ross Noble, Kerry Fox, Aidan Gillen and Anna Friel.

The partnership with the Audi Dublin International Film Festival 2017 will see the Ireland edition of The Times and The Sunday Times featured across all of the Festival’s online and offline marketing channels. In addition, complimentary copies of The Sunday Times will also be gifted to audience members on Sunday February 19th and Sunday February 26th.

Subscribers to the Ireland edition of The Times and The Sunday Times will also be offered the chance to win a VIP prize of two tickets to the Opening and Closing Night Red Carpet Gala, including an overnight stay at Dublin’s Merrion Hotel.

According to Catherine Newman, chief marketing officer of The Times and Sunday Times: “This partnership between the Ireland edition of The Times, The Sunday Times and the Audi Dublin International Film Festival is a very natural fit. The festival is a fantastic platform for fresh and innovative ideas amongst Irish and international film-makers and our readers enjoy the extensive coverage of the arts, particularly film, which features in our titles. It’s wonderful to be able to join these two elements together and offer a range of perspectives on what’s happening in the world of film.’
