"The nomination comes thanks to the filming of the American series The Librarians: The Next Chapter, produced in Serbia by the production company Balkanic Media, with the nomination submitted by the SFA", the statement said.

As noted, Belgrade made the final shortlist along with La Palma in Spain, Figeira de Foz in Portugal, Inari in Finland, and Sangerhausen in Germany. The winning city will be announced in February at a ceremony during the Berlin Film Festival.

The award, presented for the ninth time by the European Film Commissions Network (EUFCN), brings together film industry experts and recognizes destinations that have supported productions through their policies and institutional backing in the realization of film and television projects.

"The series The Librarians: The Next Chapter brought global visibility to Belgrade through recognizable locations such as Kalemegdan, the Military Museum, the National Theatre, the Zvezdara Observatory, and the central pedestrian streets around Knez Mihailova", the statement emphasized.

Milica Bozanic, a representative of the SFA, stated that "the nomination is significant recognition that film destinations are not a spontaneous phenomenon, but the result of persistent partnership between the local film community and the trust of foreign producers".

"After completing dozens of projects with Dean Devlin and Electric Entertainment in Serbia, The Librarians: The Next Chapter gave us an exceptional opportunity, as it engaged local creatives, from actors to costume designers and set designers", said Jonathan English of Balkanic Media.

As highlighted, film enthusiasts can vote for Belgrade until January 30, 2026, on the website https://eufcn.com/location-awards-2025/
