‘Taxi Driver,’ ‘Bridget Jones,’ ‘Bound’ Reunions Set for 2026 Tribeca Festival

The festival will also include more live conversations with Sean Penn, Paul Rudd, Keke Palmer, Dwyane Wade, Finneas, and Este Haim.

The 2026 edition of Tribeca Festival (June 3-14) has announced its lineup of talks, reunions, and retrospectives, as the festival celebrates 25 years. Its robust lineup is often highlighted by these in-person events, which fete all manner of talents and their projects, both new and older.

Bruce Springsteen will receive the 2026 Harry Belafonte Voices for Social Justice Award, an honor established by the late Paula Weinstein — Tribeca’s former chief content officer, and an acclaimed producer and activist. Springsteen will hold a conversation with Bono, with Patti Smith and Tribeca co-founder Robert De Niro also there to pay the tribute.

The festival will world premiere “Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour — Live in Paris,” followed by a conversation with Katy Perry, as well as Tony Kaye’s “Humpty Dumpty X.” The film follows his creative journey after directing 1998’s “American History X.”
