East Village Queer Film Festival

East Village Queer Film Festival

Thursday, 27 August 2026 until Sunday, 30 August 2026

Now in our 10th year! Welcome to the new queer cinema!

East Village Queer Film Festival (EVQ) celebrates queer film in all it's glorious diversity. We welcome filmmakers who entertain, explore and promote queer-themed issues and as well as the downtown avant garde. EVQ's further goal is community building through queer cinema. EVQ promotes the work of queer film and fosters a highly inclusive environment for all artists. You don't have to be LGBTQ+ to submit your film but you do have to be Queer!

EVQ will present awards for Best Feature Film, Best Short Film, Best "Future Cult Classic" & Best Music Video
