Event intelligence

Know before you go

Entry wait

Screenings have separate capacities and ferry timing constrains arrival; reserve sessions and lodging before travelling.

Best arrival time

Plan each screening around the correct hamlet and ferry, allowing walking time because there is no ordinary road transfer.

Attendee mix

Queer filmmakers, residents, seasonal visitors, arts supporters and multigenerational Fire Island audiences share the programme.

Dress code in practice

Relaxed island layers and weather-safe footwear suit screenings; evening events may invite polished resort casual without a formal code.

Host and security inclusion

The festival is explicitly built around queer film and uses two historic LGBTQ+ community venues across the island.
