The Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour is back for 2021, bringing the latest action and adventure films to  venues around the UK this autumn.

The tour features two different collections of inspirational films from the world’s top adventure film-makers, with  extreme expeditions, fearless characters and astounding cinematography from the wildest corners of the planet. 

“We can’t wait to get these epic adventure films back where they belong – up on the big screen!” says tour director  Nell Teasdale.  

“With mind-blowing stories of human endeavour from rarely-seen parts of the world, Banff events have a thrilling  atmosphere – and we guarantee audiences will leave inspired to have an adventure of their own.” 

Starring a coveted mountaineering first on K2, a raucous running expedition in Tajikistan and more, the films are  chosen from hundreds of entries into the annual Banff Mountain Film Festival in Canada. None of the films were  shown in Banff UK & Ireland’s virtual events over lockdown. 

“We’re looking forward to welcoming audiences back into theatres to celebrate the spirit of adventure and the great  outdoors through these award-winning films,” adds Nell.  

The tour starts on 1 September in Edinburgh and finishes on 27 November in Nottingham, with more than 80 shows  in between. As well as thrilling films, each event features a free prize draw for exciting outdoorsy goodies from tour  partners. For more information and to book tickets via www.banff-uk.com
