The Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour is coming back to Williams Lake on Thursday, Dec. 1.
Following the Banff Centre Mountain Film and Book Festival, the World Tour hits the road annually with stops planned in roughly 550 communities and more than 40 countries across the globe. The Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour celebrates the amazing achievements of outdoor storytelling and filmmaking worldwide.
From the over 400 entries submitted to the festival each year, award winners and audience favourites are among the films carefully selected to play in theatres around the world.
Traveling to remote vistas, analyzing topical environmental issues and bringing audiences up close and personal with adrenaline-packed action sports, the 2022/23 World Tour promises to be an exhilarating and provocative exploration of the mountain world.
