On July 6, 2023, the Lima Film Festival officially announced its 26th edition under the motto "#CinemaBringsUsTogether" (Spanish: #ElCineNosReúne). The festival was held from August 4 to 12, 2022, with in-person and virtual screenings. Organized by the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru and presented by the BBVA Foundation in Peru, the Ministry of Culture of Peru, the Gran Teatro Nacional del Perú, the event aimed to celebrate the vibrant world of cinema in the Lima capital. The full schedule and ticket sales were made available as of July 25, 2022.[3] In June 2023, tributes to the careers of actresses Yvonne Frayssinet and Mercedes Morán, along with sound technician Francisco Adrianzén, were announced.[1]

The documentary film Mirlo's Dance by Álvaro Luque opened the festival as the opening film, screened out of competition. Following the screening, the band performed a live concert for the audience at the Gran Teatro Nacional.[4]
