Running from April 18th through the 29th, the festival, which is presented by AT&T, will bring creators, diverse audiences, and the industry together in New York City. The festival has also announced that they have locked down a multi-year collaboration with Withoutabox, an online festival submission system.

Withoutabox is the perfect partner to help further our film submissions and we eagerly look forward to seeing what our endlessly surprising creators bring us in 2018.”
Matt Kumin, Head of Withoutabox, IMDbPro and Box Office Mojo, adds, “Withoutabox is home to the top filmmakers and film festivals in the world, and our mission is to provide filmmakers with unparalleled opportunities to share their projects with a global audience. The Tribeca Film Festival is one of the most important festivals in the world and we are thrilled they have selected Withoutabox to be their exclusive third party film submissions service beginning with the highly anticipated 2018 film festival.”
