Lekkifest, in 2026 explodes with three main tiers, making it effectively three festivals in one
from the flagship “Films Best”, to “Creative Media”, and “Spoken Word/Literature”.
The core of the festival, invites submissions of films in such categories as Overall Best, now named after the Festival’s inaugural Jury Chairman, Segun Oyekunle, whom we lost very sadly shortly after the Lekkifest edition held at the Lekki Coliseum in 2019.
There are also the Long Feature, Short Feature, Documentary Film as well as Indigenous Language Film categories. And this year we cap it with a new, Mobile Phone/AI category.
