Events in

October 17 - October 19

Film, fun, and a whole lot of queer energy—deep in the heart of Texas? Welcome to the Austin LGBT Film Festival, or aGLIFF. It’s the oldest and largest international LGBTQ+ film fest in the Southwest, making it a cornerstone of Texan cinema. Born in 1987, aGLIFF has been the glittery heart of Austin’s queer culture, blending entertainment, advocacy, education, and community-building.

Each year, aGLIFF brings a vibrant lineup of films showcasing the full spectrum of queer experiences. From thought-provoking documentaries to narrative features sharing untold stories, the festival celebrates queer lives in all their diversity. You’ll also find punchy shorts and experimental films that push storytelling boundaries. It’s a celebration of visibility and authenticity, free from Hollywood stereotypes.

But aGLIFF isn’t just about watching movies. It hosts panels, Q&As, and workshops where you can meet filmmakers, activists, and industry pros shaping queer cinema’s future. These discussions dive into real issues like representation and equality, leaving you inspired and informed.

The festival also captures Austin’s iconic vibe. Screenings take place in legendary venues, and after the credits roll, the party continues. From afterparties to networking events, you’ll connect with new friends and share in the celebration.

At its core, the Austin LGBT Film Festival (aGLIFF) is about connection, visibility, and unapologetic queer joy. If you want to experience queer cinema at its finest, this is where Texas proudly beats in rainbow technicolor.
