This year’s program is the biggest in the ninth-year history of the festival. We’ve hand-picked an eclectic selection of award winning features, shorts and documentaries from around the world to deliver a festival that we hope will make you laugh, make you cry, inspire you, shock you – and, as always, challenge the dominant paradigm.

Join us for the Gala Opening Night screening the finalists from our short film competition and kick your heels up at the biggest queer party of the year featuring a very special guest DJ. But most importantly, come to Brisbane Queer Film Festival to engage in a cinematic experience that no other festival can offer. 

Unsure what films to see? Save the time and the hassle, buy a pre selected film package and go into the draw to win a week of fun in the Volkswagen Eos Convertible, complete with a full tank of fuel! For more information, see the ticket packages section below. Conditions apply.
