Event Cinemas George Street

If you’re interested in queer cinema, this festival offers a chance to see a wide range of LGBTIQ+ stories on screen. It’s been around since 1993, growing from a small group of filmmakers and community members into a key event for queer voices in film. You’ll find a mix of local talent and international works, all chosen to reflect diverse experiences within the community. The festival’s programming is known for being thoughtful and varied, making it a great way to explore different perspectives through film. Beyond just watching movies, the festival supports emerging artists with initiatives like funding and pitching opportunities, which adds an extra layer of meaning to the event. Attending can feel like joining a space where stories that often go unheard are given room to breathe. Whether you come alone or with friends, you’re likely to appreciate the care put into the selection and the chance to engage with films that challenge, entertain, and resonate.
