The Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement (Italian: Leone d'oro alla carriera, lit. 'Career Golden Lion') is an award given at the Venice Film Festival. It is awarded to directors, actors and other personalities from the world of cinema who have distinguished themselves in the art. Among the winners are Charlie Chaplin, Manoel de Oliveira, Stanley Kubrick, Alida Valli, Sophia Loren and many other figures of international film.[1] It joins the Golden Lion, the festival's highest prize, which is instead awarded to a film in competition.[2]

The prize was established in 1971.[3] Previously, the equivalent prize was the Omaggio per il complesso dell'opera, awarded in 1969 and 1970.[1] Previously, such tributes were given in the form of retrospectives. The award was not given between 1973 and 1981, nor in 1984.[4] In 1982, there were twelve winners.[1]
