“The Dingle International Film Festival has, since its establishment in 2007, become a landmark event in Ireland’s cultural calendar. Its repute, of course, extends far beyond Irish shores, and every year Dingle plays host to filmmakers and animators who have travelled from countries across the globe to participate in this special event. As President of Ireland I would like to thank the organisers of the Dingle International Film Festival for their dedication to the promotion of the beautiful and courageous films which cause us to examine new thoughts and new possibilities.”
Michael D. Higgins, Uachtarán na hÉirann, President of Ireland

I would like to thank this insane genius Maurice Galway who has the most beautiful festival I have ever experienced. The warmth of this place you hold in the palm of your hand and you make sure that everything in this festival and these presentations are touched by and hold this county’s sentiment in them.
