KHC Live Kicks presents The Banff Mountain Film Festival

December 14, 2024 - 7:00pm

 

Location: Mount 7 Rec Plex

 

Get ready for an adrenaline rush courtesy of the Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour, a breathtaking “highlights reel” of extreme action sequences and insights into exotic cultures.

 

One of KHC’s signature annual events is a “highlights” version of the Banff Mountain Film Festival, the largest mountain festival in the world. The BMFF runs for nine days and is juried from several hundred films. Luckily for us they inaugurated an outreach program to tour a mini-fest to other centres a long time ago; and what started with just three cities across Canada has now expanded to literally a world tour as several hundred communities across the globe get to partake in this thrilling armchair adventure. A carefully curated compendium of the year’s best short films, it is a showcase for the most awe-inspiring aspects of mountain culture, one that also functions as a window onto the world’s most pristine, beautifully remote locales. This “best of the fest” tour is a dazzler that ranges from adrenaline-spurting action sequences to narratives of amazing adventures with exotic cultures in far-off lands. Running just over two hours, it is an exhilarating, high-octane journey into realms that few of us are lucky enough – or maybe brave enough – to visit. “The Festival brings exciting programming to the screen, allowing everyone to experience these inspiring stories that drive us to keep exploring our world outside,” says Sedona tour host Patrick Schweiss. Rousing and sometimes provocative, this is an amazing way to spend a Saturday night. Grab your favourite beverage from the KICKS Café, sink back into your seat, and get ready to accelerate into a remarkable realm of beauty and excitement. And this is sure to sell out, so get those tickets early!
