We are happy to announce that MediaEval 2027 will be held in Bucharest on Monday 13 September 2027 at the CAMPUS Research Institute, part of the National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest, and will be co-located with CLEF 2027.

The Multimedia Evaluation Benchmark (MediaEval) offers challenges in the form of shared tasks. The goal of MediaEval is to develop and evaluate new algorithms and technologies for multimedia retrieval, access and exploration. MediaEval tasks are innovative, involving multiple modalities, (e.g., audio, visual, textual, and/or contextual) and focusing on the human and social aspects of multimedia. Our larger aim is to promote reproducible research that makes multimedia a positive force for society.
