Banff Mountain Film Festival

Banff Mountain Film Festival

Every year, the incredibly popular Banff Mountain Film Festival presents the world’s most creative and inspiring outdoor adventure films—and this year, we’ve got twice the excitement with two nights and two separate programs. 

In addition to this year’s gems, you’ll see award-winning selections from last fall’s festival, focusing on activities like BASE jumping, skiing, mountain biking, and snowboarding.

Stop by Heirloom before either screening for supper or a drink.
