By awarding the trophy, the Pegasus, the Festival recognizes the most successful and attractive stunts in the male and female categories. The prize is awarded by international expert jury which consists of stunt coordinators, the most experienced stuntmen and relevant representatives of the film industry. This year, the trophies will be awarded by a three-member jury consisting of: Simone Belli (Italy), Alex Cvetkov (Slovenia) and Carl Stück (Germany).
Already last year, the number of applications for the award increased significantly, and this year further growth is expected, which speaks of the attractiveness and importance of Pegasus. Outside of the USA, there is no festival that systematically and professionally evaluates and rewards the most successful stunt performances, and in addition to recognizing the best, Pegasus is increasingly rising importance of professional technical and artistic evaluation of stunt performances.
In previous editions the winners were Tjaša Perko (Slovenia) and Slaven Petrović (Croatia) in 2024 and Stela Dikšić (Croatia) and Carl Stück (Germany) in 2025.
The deadline for applzing the stunt is April 13, 2026, and the stunt has to be a part of an audiovisual work that was shown from 2024 to 2026, without having been applied for the previous Festival edition. Applications are submitted at https://stunt-festival.com/en/prize-jury-2026/
