Hack Málaga is the Festival de Málaga's proposal for the new audiovisual industry. A 2-month online programme where Ibero-American creators develop their original project from scratch. The programme features 4 challenges framed within an experiential learning approach. Each challenge is linked to a live online class with top industry professionals. The best projects gain access to the MAFIZ market.
Hack Málaga does not work with projects that have started or are in development. The focus is learning to develop projects with the methods and tools that define the audiovisual industry today.
In 2026, the programme is running three concurrent calls: the Málaga Call for Ibero-American creators (except Argentina), the INCAA IMPULSA Call for Argentine creators aged 18 to 35 in alliance with the INCAA and the Mar del Plata Festival, and a third call that will be launched later in the year.
Applications for the Málaga and INCAA IMPULSA Call are open until 1 July. Since 2021, more than 20,000 creators have applied to the programme. 100 have been selected to travel to the festival.
