Congratulations to all the selected animators for 2021! Animation Dingle have been overwhelmed by the amount of entries we have received for 2021 Festival and sincerely thank all the animators in Ireland and from around the globe for submitting; with entries from over 27 countries.  It is great to see that animation and creativity really is well, and truly alive and kicking, despite a global pandemic.

Animation Dingle commits to delivering the very best in Animation from Ireland and around the globe annually and the rigorous adjudication process is tough to get through. Under current COVID-19 restrictions, the festival want to play their part in the nation’s recovery.  With this at the forefront of their minds, they will not be planning any live events this year.

The NEW Virtual Animation Dingle Festival will give the opportunity to gain a worldwide audience and platform work submitted into the homes, offices, buildings, even laps of professional and student animators, broadcasting companies, animation companies and executives globally.  The dynamic interactive platform will provide space for screenings, speakers, panels and much more….and more of that later.
