Showcasing the best of Irish culture
AN CHUID IS FEARR DE CHULTÚR NA HÉIREANN Á LÉIRIÚ
Since 2011 Irish Film & Television UK (IFTUK) has been showcasing and celebrating the best of Irish culture through the digital medium. We promote world class Irish Film, Television and Animation throughout the UK.
Our events throughout the year include:
The Irish Film Festival London, our flagship five-day event held each November and culminating in the Irish Film Awards
The St Brigid’s Day Film Festival, held each February in celebration of women
The St. Patrick's Day Film Festival, held each March in association with the Mayor of London
The Q-IFTUK Pride Film Festival, held each June
We hold workshops and seminars throughout the year to inform, educate and engage with the Irish diaspora and those interested in Irish culture. Our Masters At Work workshops are held monthly at London’s Century Club in the heart of Soho.
We regularly take our events on tour around the UK.
In 2026 we formed Q-IFTUK, the dynamic platform dedicated to promoting and celebrating queer Irish filmmakers, artists, and their art forms. Q-IFTUK is the only Irish LGBTQ arts organisation in the UK.
The IFTUK Board consists of film & television industry professionals with expertise in Production, Distribution, Exhibition, Events, Media Law, Finance, Governance & Academia.
The IFTUK Advisory Group is headed by IFTUK’s Director of Finance Committee Chair, Michael Martin FCCA, and includes experts in screen writing, journalism, PR, film sales & marketing & television distribution. Their broad range of specialism and expertise supports the delivery team.
The IFTUK delivery team includes Festival Director Michael Hayden, Marketing & Operations Manager Julie Delaney, Head of Q-IFTUK Derek Murphy and Short Film Programmer Natasha Orlando Kappler.
