Queer City Cinema is an annual film festival in Regina, Saskatchewan, which presents an annual program of LGBTQ film.[1] First established in 1996, the festival was presented every two years at first before becoming an annual event. In recent years, the main festival has been presented concurrently with Performatorium, a festival of LGBTQ theatre and performance art.[2]

In addition to the main event in Regina, the festival also presents a touring LGBTQ film minifestival presented in selected other cities in Western Canada, including Victoria, Yellowknife, Saskatoon and Thunder Bay.[3] The touring minifestival was organized for the first time in 2001.[4]

In 2000, the event faced some controversy when the Saskatchewan Party criticized a government grant to the festival, on the grounds that some of the festival's content was allegedly pornographic.[5] Although an anti-gay lobby group led by Christian evangelist Bill Whatcott picketed the festival that year, the festival took place without major incident.[6] The 2001 launch of the touring festival was criticized in the Canadian House of Commons by Saskatoon MP Jim Pankiw,[7] but was also staged without incident.[8]
