Background

In March 2023, Valladolid was revealed as the host city for the 38th edition, together with the 2025 host city, Granada.[5] On 29 June 2023, the specific date of 10 February was disclosed by the academy president Fernando Méndez-Leite and the Mayor of Valladolid Jesús Julio Carnero.[2] The mixed selection process was modified so 3 nominations be chosen by academy members belonging to the respective specialisation with the other two being elected by the entire body of academy members.[6] The shortlist system for the short film and documentary award categories was also discarded.[6]

Gala hosts Javier Ambrossi, Ana Belén, and Javier Calvo.

In October 2023, the full slate of submissions by national film academies and committees to the Goya Award for Best European Film was announced: Aftersun (United Kingdom), Anatomy of a Fall (France), Behind the Haystacks (Greece), Thunder (Switzerland), Great Yarmouth: Provisional Figures (Portugal), The Eight Mountains (Italy), Safe Place (Croatia), The Teachers' Lounge (Germany), Sughra's Sons (Azerbaijan), and The Last Ashes (Luxembourg).[7] On 30 October 2023, Méndez-Leite announced Ana Belén, Javier Ambrossi, and Javier Calvo as the gala hosts.[8]

The nominations were read by Luis Tosar and Anna Castillo on 30 November 2023 as a part of the programming of La1 morning television show Mañaneros [es].[9][10] 20,000 Species of Bees led the nominations with fifteen, followed by Society of the Snow with thirteen.[11]

Amaia, David Bisbal, Estopa, María José Llergo, India Martínez, Niña Pastori, Sílvia Pérez Cruz, and Salvador Sobral were later announced as musical performers.[12]

The gala broadcast on La 1 commanded a 23.5% audience share (2,359,000 viewers).[1]
