'''Lionsgate Home Entertainment''' is the home video distribution arm of [[Lionsgate Films]]. At first most of their releases were only released by them in Canada, while in the United States, they licensed their films to [[Universal Pictures Home Entertainment]] for home video distribution, with the exception of ''Dogma'' being released by [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment]], which has distributed its releases since a prior distribution arrangement with [[20th Century Fox Home Entertainment]], inherited from [[Artisan Entertainment]], expired following the latter's purchase by Disney in 2019. It is currently the British distributor for [[Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment]] and its sister labels, including 20th, through Elevation Sales, a joint venture with [[StudioCanal]].
