Banff Mountain Film Festival: Program 1

Each year, the Banff Mountain Film Festival presents the most creative and inspiring examples of outdoor adventure filmmaking from around the world. Once again, we’re presenting two entirely different programs over two nights—and we can say with certainty that tickets will sell out early!

Our galleries, store, and Heirloom Café will stay open until 7 PM both nights so you can grab dinner before the films—and remember, you can enjoy free admission to Noah Purifoy: Junk Dada with your Banff ticket!

Cosponsored by Ohio State’s Department of Recreational Sports Outdoor Adventure Center.
