Banff Mountain Film Fest
Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour — Jasper
The Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour is coming to Jasper. The Jasper-Yellowhead Museum & Archives is hosting two screenings at the Jasper Activity Centre on September 18–19. The World Tour is the traveling showcase of the internationally renowned Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival. It features short and feature films about adventure, exploration, and mountain culture. Expect everything from big-mountain skiing to alpine climbing to stories of resilience in wild places. It’s a chance to see festival-caliber adventure filmmaking without a trip to Banff.
Highlights include:
An evening screening on Thursday, September 18 at 7:00 PM. There’s also a matinee on Friday, September 19 at 1:00 PM. Both take place at the Jasper Activity Centre (303 Bonhomme St.). The lineup features films like Serac and Crevasse. Both offer a taste of high-alpine storytelling and cinematography. Tickets are $25 and available online in advance. That’s worth doing early — Banff Film Fest stops tend to draw a crowd.
How to prepare:
Grab your tickets ahead of time through the event’s ticketing page. Don’t count on walk-up availability. This is an indoor evening event, so no special gear is needed. Just arrive a little early to find a seat. If you’re combining the trip with outdoor activities that day, plan your layers. Evenings cool off quickly in Jasper come September.
