The Mostra de València-Cinema del Mediterrani is a film festival held annually in Valencia, Spain.
The first edition was held in November 1980.[1] In 2011, Valencia Mayor Rita Barberá suspended the festival as an austerity measure "until the economy recovered".[2] In 2013, while the festival was gone, an association created the alternative festival Mostra Viva del Mediterrani.[3] The Mostra was brought back by the municipal corporation led by Joan Ribó in 2018.[3] For its 36th edition (2021), the Mostra was accredited by the FIAPF as a competitive festival with specialisation in cinema from Mediterranean countries.[4] The 39th edition ended prematurely due to the 2024 floods in the Valencia region.[5][6]
