Event Information

The Banff Mountain Film Festival is an international film competition and an annual presentation of short films and documentaries about mountain culture, sports, and environment. 

It was launched in 1976 as The Banff Festival of Mountain Films by The Banff Centre and is held every fall in Banff, Alberta. Approximately 300 films are entered into the film festival annually, and top 60 films are selected by a pre-screening committee to be shown at the festival. During the festival, the international film festival jury chooses the best films and presents awards in various categories. Every year the Banff World Tour team chooses about 25 films that feature a range of styles and themes, including climbing, skiing, kayaking, biking, adventure, culture, and the environment. 

Most World Tour screenings include a range of different themes (adventure sports, environment, mountain culture, heritage, etc.) and styles (action-filled shorts; longer, more comprehensive films; amateur and professional productions; etc.). The focus is on dynamic, high-adrenaline films featuring sports such as skiing, climbing, kayaking, BASE jumping, snowboarding and mountain biking, and new sports . These activities continue to be included on the World Tour, but the Radical Reels Tour is for audiences who prefer screenings with a focus on action films. Immediately after the festival in November, a selection of the best films entered in the festival goes on tour. The World Tour visits more than 300 cities annually in 20 countries. In India the Himalaya Club is the host and Vainataya Giryarohan Giribhraman sanstha from Nasik is lucky to have hosted this event since 2015 gaining full house support from Sports enthusiast from Nasik and nearby cities and villages.
