Reel Pride turns forty in 2025, making it one of the longest serving queer film Festivals in North Armerica!

This year, Reel Pride features nine feature films, showing two films a night from Wednesday to Saturday at the Gas Station Arts Centre, with a festival finale in the afternoon at the CMHR on Sunday, September 21. Films from around the world showcase the experience of being queer in a variety of cultures, including films from the Philippines, Iceland, Canada, France, and more!

The Festival also features a 2SLGBTQ+ Short Film Competition, at 1 pm on September 20 at the Gas Station Arts Centre, which holds a mirror up to show life in the queer community. Organizers have curated a two-hour program of short films from the more than 100 submissions.

The Reel Pride Film Festival is an incorporated, not for profit, volunteer board organization, registered as The Winnipeg Gay and Lesbian Film Society. Advance tickets and Festival passes will be available on Eventbrite.ca starting the middle of August.
