Texas Indie Filmmaker Awards

The Texas Indie Filmmaker Awards (TIFA) is a red-carpet awards show for Texas-based and Texas-affiliated independent films, held in Arlington and presented by Ladies in Film & Television (LIFT), a Texas nonprofit for women in film and media. Its organizers stress that it is an awards show, not a festival: selected films may be screened beforehand with the filmmaker's consent, but none play during the ceremony. Winners receive a custom trophy and laurel, and special honors include a Texas Indie Choice Award and the Cavin Yarbrough Music Award for an inspirational music video. The 2026 show was held September 26 at the Bob Duncan Center.
