INTERNATIONAL DUBLIN GAY THEATRE FESTIVAL COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival Company Limited by Guarantee is the charitable organisation behind Ireland's flagship celebration of LGBTQ+ theatre. Each year the Festival brings together playwrights, directors, performers and audiences for a vibrant programme of productions, workshops and talks that showcase gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, non-binary and intersex voices from across the island and beyond.

The Festival offers a range of ticketing options, from single-ticket vouchers to VIP passes that grant exclusive access to rehearsals, backstage tours and special events. In addition to presenting the shows, the company actively recruits volunteers and board members to help plan and deliver the 2026 edition, ensuring the event remains community-driven and inclusive. Under the artistic leadership of award-winning playwright and director Sean Denyer, the Festival continues to expand its artistic reach while maintaining its core mission of celebrating diverse theatrical expression.

Supported by the Department of Culture, Communications and Sport, the International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival is proudly based in Dublin and serves audiences and creators throughout Ireland, fostering a welcoming space where all facets of queer theatre can thrive.
