Lady Windemere 's Fan has been adapted in two silent films: a 1917 version by Ideal Film, and a 1925 Warner Brothers production called The Fan by director Ernest Lubitsch.

Otto Preminger remade The Fan with sound in 1949.

Librettist Don Allan Clayton adapted the play for an Off-Broadway musical comedy called A Delightful Season in 1960.

A recording of the play exists in a 1997 audiotape version with Michael Sheen speaking the part of Lord Darlington.
