Infinity Festival Hollywood
Infinity Festival, the pioneering event where entertainment, technology, and gaming converge to set the gold standard for innovation in media and content creation, returns to Hollywood October 9–10. The 2025 festival will expand its footprint through two iconic venues: the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures and the newly opened Sony Pictures Imageworks Mid-Wilshire campus on Los Angeles’s prestigious Museum Mile.
Kicking off its eighth year, the festival is proud to be supported by Presenting Sponsors HP, NVIDIA, and AMD, and is honored to feature The Belgian Economic Mission under the Guardianship of HRH Princess Astrid, Representative of His Majesty the King, as a special delegation at this year’s event. The festival also welcomes back Mike Ford, CTO of Sony Pictures Imageworks, and Mandy Tankenson, SVP, Head of Production at Sony Pictures Imageworks, as Festival Co-Chairs.
This year’s theme, “Innovators in the Age of Change,” celebrates the technologists and creators who are redefining what’s possible. In an era defined by disruption, the true rockstars are those rewriting the rules - blending bold imagination with cutting-edge innovation to shape a new cultural and creative frontier. From AI to immersive media, they’re not just adapting to change - they're leading the revolution.
Infinity Festival continues to lead the conversation on how technology is transforming the entertainment industry. Unlike traditional conferences, the festival offers a dynamic, hands-on experience, featuring cutting-edge showcases, screenings, demos, AI labs, and panels that spotlight the people and ideas driving the future of media. Under the direction of programming heads Erik Weaver and Natalie Novak, this year’s lineup will showcase how storytelling is pushing creative boundaries through emerging technologies like AI, immersive and large-format experiences designed to inspire creatives, industry professionals, and content and tech enthusiasts alike.
As the only and largest event showcasing the entire production pipeline - from concept to final frame - this event is designed for studio leaders, indie creators, students, and Academy Award–winning directors alike, to offer an unparalleled look at how artificial intelligence is transforming every stage of storytelling. No other event brings together studios, gaming companies, and world-class creative talent to explore the full scope of emerging tools and workflows.
