About this event

The Irish Film Institute’s annual celebration of the terrifying, the gory, the wince-inducing, and the uncanny returns with IFI Horrorthon 2026, running Thursday, October 22nd to Monday, October 26th.

Over five days, genre fans can immerse themselves in the very best of new horror, a special strand of classic folk horror essentials, the highly anticipated annual Horror Table Quiz, late night double bills for witching hour thrills, a horror Prom Night spectacular on Saturday with screenings, performance and party as award-winning queer DIY cabaret collective EGG Cabaret partner on a full-venue takeover, a Bank Holiday Monday cine-concert with musician Stephen Horne accompanying silent classic The Cat and the Canary, and the festival’s ever-popular surprise slots too.

Over 18s only.
