Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival World Tour 2019/20
Virtual Edition

Hosted by Rendezvous Adventure Outfitters & Bicycle Pedaler

The Banff Centre Banff Mountain Film Festival is one of the most prestigious mountain festivals in the world. Hot on the heels of the festival held every year in Banff, Alberta, the Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour hits the road with stops planned in about 550 communities and 40 countries across the globe.

This year, though, comes with a twist.  With COVID impacting group gathering sizes and travel restrictions in place, the Festival is going virtual, and you will be able to access all the heart-pounding, high-adrenaline films you love right from the comfort of your own home!  Read below for all the details, and to purchase your ticket.

Coming to you virtually September 16,- October 24, 2020
The Lowdown: From September 16 - October 24, 2020, you'll be able to choose any of three pre-arranged programs below and stream it right from your living room for $15. If you don't want to miss out on any of these great films, you can choose the three program Bundle for $40. Each program line-up is unique, new for 2020, and includes Banff Road Warrior greetings, intermission messages, and concluding remarks, so you can replicate the feel of the Festival at home.
*Once purchased, your program will be available for viewing as many times as you'd like for 72 hours.
*If you choose the $40 Bundle, you will have 2 weeks to enjoy your programs.
