The Melbourne Women in Film Festival is turning 10!

MWFF 2026 will celebrate the festival’s decade of supporting women and gender diverse people’s filmmaking in Melbourne, Australia, Aotearoa and Pasifika communities.

Join us for this magnificent milestone in March with a program of feature and short film screenings, retrospectives, panels and conversations, filmmaker Q&As, and industry workshops. This year, MWFF also looks back at the last nine years – the filmmakers, guests, stories, and audiences who have made the festival thrive.
