ANCHOR Conference is a gathering space designed to push careers to the next level and inspire the creation of Canadian screen work. The "Industry Pass" grants access to all conference activities, including panels, networking mixers, late-night parties, and roundtable discussions.

Panels take place on October 15, 16, and 17, from 9:00am-5:00pm at The Guild. These 45-minute discussions engage with the industry’s challenges and opportunities, while maintaining a practical lens. The topics will range from skill-building to candid conversations addressing the harsh realities of the industry. In 2026, ANCHOR will expand its panel discussions to include topics at the intersections of film, television, comedy, and music. 

Networking events will take place throughout the five-day festival, including evening mixers at ANCHOR's festival lounge - The Dali Cafe, and quirky late-night activities across Downtown Charlottetown.
