PREPARE to travel the world and experience exhilarating and unforgettable adventures from the comfort of your seat when the Banff Mountain Film Festival comes to the Wyvern on Thursday.

Now in its sixth edition, the festival showcases a collection of the best and latest films from the global mountain sports community. The two and a half hour programme has been selected from over 370 films entered into the prestigious Banff Mountain Film Festival, held in the Canadian Rockies in November 2014.

Banff audiences will be taken on a journey around the world, as they get to know the remarkable characters behind the hair raising on-screen action sports. This year’s Banff Tour will offer audiences a thrilling adventure through the big screen as they paraglide through the Alps, mountain bike on the Isle of Skye, surf in the Arctic Circle, ski in Patagonia and kayak in Canada’s British Columbia.

The event is much more than a series of incredible film nights. It brings together people with a range of outdoor passions who return every year to enjoy the community feeling of a Banff screening and leave with new enthusiasm and inspiration for their own adventures.

The Festival will come to the Wyvern Theatre on Thursday April 30 at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £12.50 and are available on 01793 524481 or at swindontheatres.co.uk.
