The Queer Screen film festival is one of the biggest LGBT film events in Australia, with the 15-day-long celebration aiming to raise awareness of sexual diversities and gender identities through queer film.
Taking place in February and March 2025, the festival showcases films, shorts, and documentaries on a wide range of LGBTIQ topics.

There are dozens of creative works from Australia and many countries worldwide to enjoy. Aside from the movies, opening night is something to look forward to as other programs change each year. Festival passes are available in bundles of 5 or 10, ideal for sharing with friends and family.
Do you have what it takes to publicly pitch your short film project with passion and conviction? Pitch Off offers Australian LGBTIQ+ filmmakers up to $10,000 of funding to produce a short film (narrative, documentary, or stand-alone web series pilot) about the experiences of people of diverse genders and sexualities.
Plenty of movies are being shown during the festival. Please check out the official session list for details of movies, venues, dates, and times.
