The Dock Market
Atlantic Canada's Premier Documentary Forum
an industry conference designed By filmmakers for filmmakers
The Dock Market at the Lunenburg Doc Fest is designed by filmmakers and industry professionals for our peers. The format provides ample time and opportunities for delegates to form professional connections and discover emerging talent, while enjoying a small town setting that is both intimate and inspirational.
At the Market, we all get to stay productive yet enjoy a peaceful departure from the creative pace we maintain throughout the year.
Testimonials
“What makes the Lunenburg Doc Market so special is how accessible everyone actually is. Without the overwhelming rush of a massive festival, filmmakers can sit down and have meaningful conversations with key industry decision makers. It's truly a one of a kind opportunity to learn and connect with filmmakers, funders and industry partners. We stayed in Nova Scotia because we believe in the stories and creative energy of this province, and Lunenburg Doc Fest proves that doc markets can thrive right here in rural NS.”

Lunenburg is one of Canada's most beautiful communities, and the Dock Market conference creates a welcoming atmosphere where filmmakers, audiences, and industry professionals come together to celebrate the power of storytelling.”
