The Chicago Irish Film Festival (CIFF) has been dedicated to presenting the works of Irish filmmakers to Chicago audiences since 1999, aiming to share Irish culture and offer a window into Irish life. The festival screens a broad range of contemporary Irish cinema, including documentaries, features, and short films, presented in both English and Irish languages. As a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, the CIFF has evolved to include both in-person and online screenings. The festival also actively accepts submissions for upcoming events, such as its 27th edition.
