We currently include contact information for over 150 lesbian and gay film festivals. Many of these are annual events. When available, the dates of the most recent or upcoming festival are given, along with information about how to contact each festival. Wherever possible we also provide links to festivals with active Web sites. Entry deadlines are usually one or two months prior to festival exhibition dates.
Many festivals have entry fees or other requirements for submissions.
This document also includes suggestions about such financial and practical considerations as venues, shipping, sponsorship, and negotiating rentals, as well as helpful hints and informational lists about organizations, books, and resources to further assist you in planning a successful film and video event.
