TheIris Prize, established in 2007 (18 years ago) (2007) byBerwyn Rowlands of The Festivals Company, is an internationalLGBTQ film prize and festival which is open to any film which is by, for, about or of interest togay,lesbian,bisexual,transgender orintersex audiences and which must have been completed within two years of the prize deadline.

The prize is open to filmmakers from around the world and judged by a panel of international filmmakers and artists. The winner receives the largest prize for a gay and lesbian film in the world—a package valued at £30,000—allowing the winner to make their next film. It is awarded during an annual festival held inCardiff that presents a programme of screenings including the competing films, several feature films, panel sessions with visiting filmmakers and culminates in a closing night award ceremony.^[1]

The Iris Prize has secured the support of lesbian and gay film festivals from around the world, creating a single international platform with the intention of raising the profile of lesbian and gay cinema and helping a new generation of filmmakers achieve success on the international stage. Each of the partner festivals selects one film annually to participate in the Iris Prize. The partner festivals include LGBTQ+film festivals inToronto,Los Angeles,New York,Sydney, Dublin,San Francisco,Philadelphia, Hong Kong, and Rochester, New York.^[2]

The journalistAndrew Pierce became the first chair of the Iris Prize in 2013.^[3] Tom Abell, managing director ofPeccadillo Pictures succeeded Pierce as chair in 2021.^[4]

In 2015 Iris Prize Outreach - the charity set up to challenge discrimination against LGBTQ+ people - was awarded funding from the National Lottery Community Fund to undertake an ambitious programme of community engagement across Wales over three years. A second project was awarded funding in 2020 and is expected to see ten new short films made.^[5]
