About this event
The GORM Gathering returns on Saturday 18 October 2025 at The Complex, Dublin. This year’s theme — Disrupting DEI Through Storytelling — flips the script on surface-level inclusion. Expect the premiere of GO HOME by Marcello Fidelis, a short film set in the aftermath of the 2023 Dublin riots, alongside panels where filmmakers and artists reclaim authorship, performances rooted in protest and joy, and a co-creation session where the community leads and the industry listens.
More than an event, the Gathering is a community-powered act of resistance and celebration, spotlighting Black and ethnic minority creatives in Irish screen. Tickets €25–€45, with ticket allowances available for those who need them.
