Queer Screen On The Green – free or $10 tickets!

Join us for Queer Screen on the Green: a special, all-day outdoor community and family event celebrating MGFF23! 

Kicking off with a Rainbow Families animated screening, followed by three retrospective, feel-good queer classics, Queer Screen on the Green will represent every decade of the festival’s existence (the 2020s, 2010s, 2000s and 1990s).

Whether you come for one or watch all four, there will be food stalls, a bar and other fun activities to keep you entertained between films. So grab your friends, dust off the post-Parade cobwebs and come on down to the UTS Alumni Green.
