Banff Mountain Film Festival in Austin This Weekend

If you're looking for something to do this weekend, the Paramount Theatre will host the annual two-night event of the travelling Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour. In their own words, the Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour brings Banff to audiences around the globe. Each year, a selection of the best films goes on tour across Canada, the US and internationally travelling to 32 countries at over 635 screenings.

Saturday night at 8 pm, National Geographic presents the Radical Reels Tour, a selection of the most high-adrenaline sport films. On Sunday at 6 pm, National Geographic, The North Face and Parks Canada present The Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour, which includes inspiring action, environmental and adventure films from the festival. Both presentations are brought to you by Whole Earth Provision Company.

It is a rewarding experience to attend at least one night for truly amazing films shot on anything from helmet cams to full professional documentary crews in extreme conditions. Films could include high-altitude snow skiing, rock climbing, hang gliding, white-water rafting, deep-sea fishing ... you name it. They will all be amazing and entertaining.

You can buy tickets online now for the Saturday, April 14 show (Radical Reels Tour) and the Sunday, April 15 show (Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour).
