Gaze LGBT Film Festival

Gaze LGBT Film Festival

Thursday, 31 July 2025 until Monday, 04 August 2025

Welcome to GAZE, Ireland’s International LGBTQIA Film Festival.

GAZE 2025 will take place from Thursday 31st July to Monday 4th August.

Every year since 1992 we have screened an eclectic programme of new international cinema that explores the experience of being an LGBTQIA person.

We celebrate new queer storytelling and our exciting programme of screenings, talks and events engages audiences and artists in a vibrant social experience here in our home town of Dublin, Ireland.

We have been around since before homosexuality was decriminalised in Ireland, and we are still going strong with our vibrant community.

We are excited and honoured to receive your work.

From the films selected for our festival, we award prizes for:

Best Irish Short

Best International Short

GAZE Jury Award for Best Feature

Audience Award for Best Feature
