About Queer East Festival
Now in its fourth year, Queer East returns to cinemas around the UK in 2023 with another exciting nationwide tour which presents contemporary feature film and documentary with retrospective screenings, short films, artists’ moving image works, and a VR cinematic experience. Through an incredible programme of cinema and performance art, the festival will push boundaries and challenge expectations and labels commonly associated with queer communities. Queer East’s vital programme is sure to provoke, inspire and engage.
Following on from the main festival which took place in April 2023 in London, the nationwide tour spans October to December across venues in Manchester, Nottingham, Sheffield, Liverpool, Belfast, Edinburgh, Leeds and more to be announced, with a selection of cinematic highlights that were screened at the main festival.
