The IFTA Film & Drama Awards are awards given by the Irish Film & Television Academy for Irish television and film, the awards began in 1999. The ceremonies recognise Irish creative talent working in film, drama, and television, and winners receive a cast bronze statuette.

History

Dubbed by the media as 'The Irish Oscars', the inaugural Irish Film & Television Awards Ceremony took place at the Burlington Hotel (Dublin) in 1999,[1] and was attended by some notable stars such as Ralph Fiennes, Charlize Theron, James Nesbitt, and Andrea Corr.[1] Following growth of the Irish film and television industries, the Academy in 2015 split the Awards into two ceremonies: the IFTA Film & Drama Awards and the IFTA Television Awards, which take place in April and October respectively. The ceremonies recognise Irish creative talent working in film and television. Winners receive a cast bronze statuette.
