About the Festival

Now in its fourth year, STAMPED: Pensacola LGBT Film Fest will take place from October 7-10, 2015. For more information about the festival, including information about each of the films to be screened, please visit stampedfilmfest.com or follow STAMPED on social media at facebook.com/pcolaLGBTfilmfest or twitter.com/stampedfilmfest.

The name — STAMPED: Pensacola LGBT Film Fest — was inspired by efforts of the LGBT community in the mid-1990s to highlight the impact of LGBT tourism and the millions of dollars it brings to the community each year. After some local officials and business owners spoke out against annual Memorial Day Weekend activities which draw tens of thousands of people to the area, many LGBT residents and visitors began to stamp the cash they spent with the words “GAY MONEY” and/or a pink triangle.
