Festival LGBT-filma, ki od leta 1984 poteka v Ljubljani, je najstarejši tovrstni filmski festival v Evropi.

Screenings take place traditionally around 1 December – World AIDS Day.

The history of the festival
When Slovenia was still part of the former Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia, Ljubljana's Student Cultural Centre (ŠKUC) founded its gay section, called Magnus. The section organized the first edition of the festival. It took place at several locations in Ljubljana: the ŠKUC Gallery, KinoŠkuc, The Ljubljana Faculty of Arts and Disko FV.The name of the festival has been changed over the years for a couple of times.

From then on, the festival was held annually, with the exception of the year 1987. The fourth edition of the festival was banned by the state authorities due to fears of aids epydemic, sparked by invited international audience.

The festival got limited financial resources from state and city authorities for years, so not all screenings in the history of the festival were translated to Slovenian language. In 1996 the Slovenian Ministry of Culture banned screenings without translation to Slovenian language, so the films of the 12th edition were translated simultaneously.

Since 1994, the main festival location has been either Kinodvor (in years 2004 to 2008) either Slovenska kinoteka (Slovenian Cinematheque). Since 2004, the Ljubljana LGBT Film Festival has had at least one location outside Ljubljana.

Since 2013, the best film of the festival are awarded by the jury and by the audience. As dragon is the symbol of Ljubljana, the name of the Ljubljana LGBT Film Festival award is Pink Dragon.

In 2018, the festival was supported by the Slovenian Film Centre for the first time in its history.
